“I studied painting and sculpting at school and became an actress by mistake …. I’ve had many lovers and still have romances. I am very spoiled. All my life, I’ve had too many admirers.”

I want to leave a souvenir of my life.

I do what I like now. I just don’t have time for it all.

We are all born to die – the difference is the intensity with which we choose to live.

I have experience seducing nephews.

Popularity has a bright side, it unlocks many doors. But the truth is that I don’t like it very much because it changes the private life into a very small thing.

Glamour is when a man knows a woman is a woman.

A woman at 20 is like ice, at 30 she is warm and at 40 she is hot.

My cinema – the ’50s, ’60s – is different from the cinema today so I thought that it would not be bad to show that kind of cinema where we could dream.

The world is conditioned to admire flowers. Keep watering your roots.

Example has more followers than reason. We unconsciously imitate what pleases us, and approximate to the characters we most admire.

If you admire greatness in another human being, it is your own greatness you are seeing.

So what if you end up buying a size 6 instead of a 4? You can always cut out the label at home, and you’ll pretty soon forget whatever that number was because you’ll be too busy admiring how fantastic you look.

Instead of worrying about what people say of you, why not spend time trying to accomplish something they will admire.

The sun touched your skin with innocent delicacy as if you were a work of out that was made to be admired deeply.

Golden bracelets, diamonds and rare blue pearls. New gadgets and sparkling shoes, Things I do not own left languishing in the wooden drawer I do not have. I am too busy walking in parks admiring the city from afar and mesmerising dancing trees.

I used to admire people who spoke their mind. Now I admire people who speak their heart.
