Zitat des Tages von Eva Mendes:
I love therapy! There's nothing like talking to someone who has no emotional tie to your life.
I know I walk a fine line between being a respected actor and being what they call a sex symbol.
I'm definitely responsible for the image that I put out there. But it does become frustrating, because I don't want 'sexy' to be my defining characteristic. I'd love for my ambition and will and intellect and sense of humour to define me as well.
I try not to go crazy, but yes, I pay attention to what I eat.
People are incapable of stereotyping you; you stereotype yourself because you're the one who accepts roles that put you in this rut or in this stereotype.
I've been with the same person for a very long time but I'm just non-conventional in that way. I don't think people need to be married. I think a lot of people need that piece of paper, but I don't think everybody needs that to feel secure.
Maybe something that's acceptable in your teens or 20s is unacceptable in your 30s or 40s.
I feel I'll take on the responsibility of showing the world a whole different kind of Latin woman.
We seem okay with violence, but nudity we race to criticize and censor.
I make conscious decisions to stay out of the limelight. Without my make-up I'm pretty much the girl next door.
But I've never felt objectified. Nothing you see me do is an accident.
I speak English without an accent, and I speak Spanish without an accent. I really do have the best of both worlds.
Actors used to carry films because people would have to actually go to the movies to see them. It was the only place. But now there's none of that mystique, and so there's less of a reason to buy a ticket.
I might act like it's an accident but the opposite is true. I'm incredibly calculated when it comes to my career.
When people write lies about you, and you know that they are lies, that means that they don't know the truth.
I'm not an exhibitionist. But, honestly, for my art I'll do anything almost. I'll go there.
I love it, but it's not important to me to always be thought of as sexy. I like it when it doesn't limit my career. It's a part of my life, but on a secondary plane.
I'm very comfortable with myself and my sexuality, but it doesn't define me. I also read books believe it or not.
I love my country, but I believe that we are too quick to censor nudity.
I'm a modern woman in the sense of I take care of myself, I'm fiercely independent, and I'm really ambitious. Yet I have these old-school thoughts in my mind.
I love every aspect of being a woman. I believe you should celebrate who you are.
I'm a trained actress and I can do it, but I think that you have to prove yourself.
I've never had a problem with nudity, but I don't put it out there without a reason.
I love having a man in my life, and being his woman at the end of the day. I know it's a dichotomy.
I do like to belong to a man.
'Anchorman' is my favorite movie of all time and Ron Burgundy is one of my favorite characters of all time. It's my 'Gone With the Wind.'
I don't usually lose my temper, but if I get angry, it's true - I'm scary.
Even if you buy a fur glove with the little trim, and you think 'Oh, my God, it's just a little trim,' that animal got clubbed.
