More quotes by Sophia Loren
I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up.
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
I hated my father all my life but in his final days I forgave him for all the suffering he caused us. As you grow older, marry, and have children of you own, you learn and forget. I do not forget easily, but I do forgive.
Sophia Loren
I'm very susceptible to sex appeal.
Sophia Loren
When I was a child, fear was common to my life - fear of having nothing to eat, fear of the other children taunting me at school because I was illegitimate, and particularly fear of the big bombers appearing overhead and dropping their lethal bursts from the sky.
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
I'm not Italian, I am Neapolitan! It's another thing!
Sophia Loren
Until you lose your mother you don't know what it is.
Sophia Loren
Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself.
Sophia Loren
Being beautiful can never hurt, but you have to have more. You have to sparkle, you have to be fun, you have to make your brain work if you have one.
Sophia Loren
Success, I would find out, is interior. It has to do with self-fulfillment and the joy of living.
Sophia Loren
Without my mother's ambition, her drive, I doubt that on my own I would have pushed myself out of Pozzuoli and into the frightening world that was faraway Rome.
Sophia Loren
There is no greater love potion than regular coffee, brewed his own. When a man tries it, he was not going anywhere.
Sophia Loren
I can't tell you that I like getting older, but I think I can cope with it because everybody gets older. Sometimes it's a little upsetting because time goes by and you want to do more and you have to accept life for what it is and find some new motivation that gives you drive and enthusiasm.
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
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
When I'm walking along in the street, I always feel that around the corner,there is something wonderful waiting for me. That's my attitude.
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
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
A dog is faithful, a woman never.
Sophia Loren
