Frasi di Eva Mendes

„Ho una vera passione per l'aspetto commerciale della mia carriera. Ogni ruolo che accetto, anche il meno significativo, fa parte di un piano strategico ben più ampio. Le mie non sono mai scelte casuali.“

—  Eva Mendes

„Sono un'attrice che ha scoperto di poter coltivare anche altri interessi.“

—  Eva Mendes

„Non mi va di parlare del futuro, sono scaramantica, tremendamente superstiziosa. Ma le assicuro che ho dei piani superprecisi.“

—  Eva Mendes

„Sono una pappamolle quando ho a che fare con le persone che amo. Basta chiedermi scusa ed è fatta! È terribile, lo so, dovrei fare uno sforzo per essere più dura.“

—  Eva Mendes

„Noi donne passiamo oltre l'aspetto fisico se una persona ha qualcosa di importante e bello da offrirci. E se ha un cervello che funziona bene. Mi dispiace per i maschi dai grandi attributi fisici. Non ce l'ho con loro per questo, intendiamoci!“

—  Eva Mendes

„I don't believe in the institution of marriage, for me. If you love somebody and have a commitment that is strong and spiritual, then I just don't think a piece of paper makes any difference. I'm part of that whole school of thought that says when homosexuals can get married, maybe I'll start opening my mind to it.“

„I wanted to go into art history. Acting fell into my lap when a neighbor took pictures of me and showed them to an agent.“

„I love animals, but I hadn’t had a pet since I was a kid. I recently got a dog and he’s not only made me a happier girl—he’s made me much more sympathetic to animal rights. I look at my beautiful dog and think, “Of course I’d never eat him or skin him for his fur, so why would I be okay with eating a cow or wearing a cheetah?” It’s just not right. It’s a contradiction. … I don’t think you can force people to change their attitudes, but you can help to educate them and to lead by example. … There are way too many amazing faux fur options out there for people to still be wearing real fur. I want people to know that there are options; that killing a poor animal and wearing it isn’t cool. But respecting all life forms is cool. Very cool.“
