More quotes by 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.
Sophia Loren
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
I eat a lot of salad, a little meat, and some fruit—that’s all. But I like sweets.
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
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
If you haven't cried, your eyes can't be beautiful.
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
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
Show business is what I do, not what I am.
Sophia Loren
I do not know if I really am a big star. And in fact that is not the most important thing for me. What counts in life is to bring about more of your own dreams. In such a way that your life becomes like a fairy tale. This is what has happened to me, it is just like that.
Sophia Loren
A mother has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.
Sophia Loren
Hate is unfulfilled love.
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
There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of the people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.
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
Mistakes are the price of an interesting life.
Sophia Loren
I firmly believe we can make our own miracles if we believe strongly enough in ourselves and our mission on earth.
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
For me, it is good to be vulnerable. It makes me nice... weak sometimes, but in a good way, not a tragic way.
Sophia Loren
Almost starve, but I don’t starve because I eat very much
