More quotes by 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
Be honest about what you can get. To make a sacrifice and to get what you want you need to be very certain. In other words: always think about your objective, have a clear goal and commit to it from the heart.
Sophia Loren
Style must be adapted to the woman and not vice versa. The same can be said of clothes.
Sophia Loren

Sophia Loren

Sophia Loren
Many people think they want things, but they don't really have the strength, the discipline. They are weak. I believe that you get what you want if you want it badly enough.
Sophia Loren
If you are a professional actor who has pride in his work, then the judgment of your peers should be important to you. I treasure each and every award I have ever received - and my Oscar is in a place of honor.
Sophia Loren
Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.
Sophia Loren
Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief that she is beautiful.
Sophia Loren
A mother has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.
Sophia Loren
I have never judged myself by other people’s standards. I have always expected a great deal of myself, and if I fail, I fail myself.
Sophia Loren
Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself.
