More quotes by 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
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
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
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 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
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
I don't believe in anti-aging creams. I believe the skin should be clean, should be nourished, but most of all you should eat the right things.
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
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 have no regrets. regret only makes wrinkles.
Sophia Loren
Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief that she is beautiful.
Sophia Loren
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
You have to be born a sex symbol. You don't become one. If you're born with it, you'll have it even when you're 100 years old.
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
Hate is unfulfilled love.
Sophia Loren
And as I walk round the park I always think, 'Maybe round the corner I am going to find something beautiful.' I always think positively. It is very rare that you find me in a mood that is sad or melancholic.
Sophia Loren
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.
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
I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up.
Sophia Loren
There's no pleasure in working if you don't do the things you want to do.
Sophia Loren
