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
Image
I think what you have inside reflects very much in your face, in your expression. If you can find a kind of equilibrium in life, you never really get old, because you have that kind of ingenuity and innocence inside that gives you that brightness and that glint in your eye that generally, getting older, you lose.
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.

The fantasy of a man is the best weapon of a woman.
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
I was born wise. Street-wise, people-wise, self-wise. This wisdom was my birthright.
Sophia Loren
Image
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.

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
Image
There is no greater love potion than regular coffee, brewed his own. When a man tries it, he was not going anywhere.
Sophia Loren
Image
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.

The right hairstyle can make a plain woman beautiful and a beautiful woman unforgettable.

Image
A woman's dress should be like a barbed-wire fence: serving its purpose without obstructing the view.
Sophia Loren
Image
Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief that she is beautiful.

Hate is unfulfilled love.

Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.

I eat a lot of salad, a little meat, and some fruit—that’s all. But I like sweets.
Sophia Loren
Image
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
Image
At the dressing table, every woman has a chance to be an artist, and art, as Aristotle said, 'completes what nature left unfinished.'

I think for the women of today, because we work and go around a lot, Armani is ideal - simple and elegant at the same time. It's not eccentric, and everything he does is very subtle. For the evening, I like Gianfranco Ferre. There's a lot of fantasy and creativity in his clothes.

Believe me, it is actions that count.
