I love to cook for my husband and daughter. I enjoy going to the market for fresh vegetables.
Salma Hayek
Image
So you have to keep waiting and then they give you the script and it's terrible. Then you have to go to the rewrite and they're very upset because you didn't like it. I went through that for seven years.
Salma Hayek
Image
I think if I was not in love, I would probably let myself go faster. Love gives me the vanity to continue.
Salma Hayek
Image
They thought I was crazy in Mexico when I said, 'I'm going to Hollywood.' Nobody thought I could make it.
Salma Hayek
Image
I love to cook when I have the time. I don't cook French or Mexican food with exact recipes. I just go to the supermarket and buy things that look good, and I mix it all together and invent something. Ninety-five percent of the time, I'm lucky. Sometimes not so lucky, and I say, 'Let's go out to dinner.'

Art and activism seem to go together naturally, the idea being that if you're an entertainer, you can have a voice, and if you have a voice, you can make a difference. But if I were not an actress, I would still try to extend myself beyond my little micro-universe of my job, family and personal joy.

I don't see women and think of them as competition or with judgment. Women really move me. I feel connected to all kinds of women. I am angry because I think we've been mistreated throughout history in different countries, including America. I admire women.

Salma Hayek
Image
I've never had anything done on my face. I've never had dermabrasion or peels or injections of any kind, nothing.
Salma Hayek
Image
I think I'm very good at adjusting to anything and to any situation, and if you are good at being in the moment and adjusting, you can actually have a clear vision of what to do with things or how to do things.
Salma Hayek
Image
I'm saving my sick days for when I'm feeling better.
Salma Hayek
Image
When I finally decided to leave school and pursue acting, my parents didn't take it very lightly. My friends thought that it was the tackiest thing they'd ever heard of. Acting was really beneath them. They couldn't believe that I would want to become an actress. Not now, of course.

What is important is to believe in something so strongly that you're never discouraged.
Salma Hayek
Image
Before I had my child, animals were my life. I slept with four dogs in my bed.

Image
Somehow I am really relaxed within the chaos of having a baby - and anyone who's a mother knows it's very hard to relax, because there is so much to do and worry about!
Salma Hayek
Image
I want my little girl to tell me who she is so I can encourage her and not impose my desires for her on her life. I want her to dream big and to know that if she is willing to earn it, she can have anything - and become anything.

When you are passionate about life, it keeps you young. Sometimes I wake up at 4:00 am just to see how my roses look.
Salma Hayek
Image
I've stolen a couple of hearts and they are in my private collection!
Salma Hayek
Image
My heart has been stolen too - but I've gone and got it back every single time!

Hollywood has definitely grown, in embracing the inclusion of Latinos in the world, because, for some time, we didn't exist. We were not part of any stories.
