More quotes by Salma Hayek
The truth is, I just don't have the drive to be the prettiest and the thinnest. I can be happy for other people for their beauty.
Salma Hayek
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
I'm a bit of an abstract figure that people can project their fantasies on it's pretty much what we all are, otherwise we wouldn't be stars, and people wouldn't be interested. But people project things on you that have nothing to do with what you really are, or they see a little something and then exaggerate it. And you can't really control that.
Salma Hayek
I love to cook for my husband and daughter. I enjoy going to the market for fresh vegetables.
Salma Hayek
If you look at any other group of people suffering injustice, women are always in the worst situation within that group.
Salma Hayek
When I first came to Hollywood I was told to go out with an agent because it was good for my career. So I went to a party with him because it was good for my 'career.' Well, he thought the whole thing was a big date. Needless to say, I was very upset.
Salma Hayek
People often say that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder,' and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder. This empowers us to find beauty in places where others have not dared to look, including inside ourselves.
Salma Hayek
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.
Salma Hayek
I don't believe in the so-called Latino explosion when it comes to movies. Jennifer Lopez doesn't have an accent. She grew up in New York speaking English, not Spanish. Her success is very important because she represents a different culture, but it doesn't help me.
Salma Hayek
Try to figure out who you really are and not who you want other people to think you are.
Salma Hayek
They thought I was crazy in Mexico when I said, 'I'm going to Hollywood.' Nobody thought I could make it.
Salma Hayek
I've never had anything done on my face. I've never had dermabrasion or peels or injections of any kind, nothing.
Salma Hayek
I believe eating well, and with people you love, is about feeding your body, heart, and soul - I used juicing to ensure I covered my nutritional bases every day, and as a tool to restore inner balance if my body needed a break from too much indulgence.
Salma Hayek
I really do love Diana Ross I grew up listening to her records. I grew up in a little town in Mexico, so while we got the music, we never got the experience of watching her.
Salma Hayek
My heart has been stolen too - but I've gone and got it back every single time!
Salma Hayek
You want to do movies that your children can watch, and that your children can have fun at and enjoy the experience of shooting.
Salma Hayek
What once was an expression of who I was - acting - also became my hiding place.
Salma Hayek
I have always been an active part of my community.
Salma Hayek
What is important is to believe in something so strongly that you're never discouraged.
Salma Hayek
I said, 'I'm going to the United States to study with Stella Adler and do movies because nobody here has done it and my passion is films.' But I came here and I didn't speak English, I didn't have a green card, I didn't know I had to have an agent, I couldn't drive, I was dyslexic.
