The Fountain of Youth is in your mind.
Sophia Loren

I like to cook for my friends. It is an act of love because in cooking you can create so many plates and recipes, if you know how to - otherwise you make a mess - but I like it because it's like a ceremony. You cook for your friends and after, you drink wine and play cards.

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
Image

Sophia Loren
Image
It [winning Oscar] is the most important event in the career of an actor, an extraordinary moment, beautiful. Some people live their whole life just to win an Oscar.
Sophia Loren
Image
I exist only because inside of me and above all else I am only and above all a Neapolitan. Naples exists inside of me, and always will. Fortunately for me there is this treasure that I have inside of me and, when I need it, then I pull it out.
Sophia Loren
Image
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
Image
There's no pleasure in working if you don't do the things you want to do.
Sophia Loren
Image
Success, I would find out, is interior. It has to do with self-fulfillment and the joy of living.
Sophia Loren
Image
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
Image
If you haven't cried, your eyes can't be beautiful.
Sophia Loren
Image
Sometimes when you involve yourself in so many things, you can't do any of them well - and I like to do everything perfectly.
Sophia Loren
Image
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.
