More quotes by Sophia Loren
Mistakes are the price of an interesting life.
Sophia Loren
At the dressing table, every woman has a chance to be an artist, and art, as Aristotle said, 'completes what nature left unfinished.'
Sophia Loren
I'm very susceptible to sex appeal.
Sophia Loren
The mirror of your health is your skin. If you drink, it shows in your face if you eat the wrong foods, you have pimples. If you take care of your food and you lead a healthy life, your skin will look wonderful.
Sophia Loren
When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.
Sophia Loren
I don't like to go in places where women talk and gossip. The atmosphere I don't like, even though you can sometimes meet nice people. For me, it's a waste of time.
Sophia Loren
Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself.
Sophia Loren
Though poor and anxious to work, I refused to alter anything. They would take me as I looked or not at all.... Eventually I profited by looking like myself and not like what was fashionable years ago with certain film technicians in Rome.
Sophia Loren
When you find yourself a mom, you will be by no means seriously by itself with your ideas. A mother usually should think twice, once for herself and once for her boy or girl.
Sophia Loren
My mother taught me the most important principles, to be determined in life, to be disciplined, to be able to understand that there are some things that you can't do and other things you have to do, that you always have to be surrounded by love, that you have to be understanding.
Sophia Loren
The Fountain of Youth is in your mind.
Sophia Loren
It's a mistake to think that once you're done with school you need never learn anything new.
Sophia Loren
I have to say that since my mother died, I am not the same person anymore. My life has changed a great deal because it's really unbearable to think you can't see her anymore or talk to her anymore.
Sophia Loren
Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.
Sophia Loren
Is my mother my friend? I would have to say, first of all she is my Mother, with a capital 'M' she's something sacred to me. I love her dearly...yes, she is also a good friend, someone I can talk openly with if I want to.
Sophia Loren
I've never tried to block out the memories of the past, even though some are painful. I don't understand people who hide from their past. Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.
Sophia Loren
You really have to be satisfied with what you are and accept from life what it still very generously offers you - and notice it, and be glad for it.
Sophia Loren
If you haven't cried, your eyes can't be beautiful.
Sophia Loren
I think the quality of sexiness comes from within.
Sophia Loren
I wake up very early every morning and I have my coffee at 6:30. If it comes at 6:35, I'm very upset. I don't say anything but I'm upset because I'm so punctual in doing things, that if I lose five minutes I have to rush everything.
Sophia Loren
