More quotes by Sophia Loren
I've never tried to block out the memories of the past, even though some are painful. I don't understand people who hide from their past. Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.
Sophia Loren
I'm not Italian, I am Neapolitan! It's another thing!
Sophia Loren
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
I always try to have a vacation.
Sophia Loren
Until you lose your mother you don't know what it is.
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
I was born wise. Street-wise, people-wise, self-wise. This wisdom was my birthright.
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
There's no pleasure in working if you don't do the things you want to do.
Sophia Loren
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
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
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
Believe me, it is actions that count.
Sophia Loren
I can cook, I can breathe, I can live!
Sophia Loren
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.
Sophia Loren
I wake up very early every morning and I have my coffee at 6:30. If it comes at 6:35, I'm very upset. I don't say anything but I'm upset because I'm so punctual in doing things, that if I lose five minutes I have to rush everything.
Sophia Loren
Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.
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
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
There is no greater love potion than regular coffee, brewed his own. When a man tries it, he was not going anywhere.
