“It’s not the Jews that killed Christ. It was a political situation, and it was the Romans who killed Jesus. They put Jesus on the cross, not the Jews”

When you see a silent movie, you understand everything that’s going on from the images because the images are so strong.

In acting process, it’s very difficult to explain. It’s something very intimate, very private.

In Italy, the concept of the family is very important.

I feel fine and comfortable with myself, but not because I’m beautiful.

I know many beautiful people and their lives are just so terrible. They feel so uncomfortable with themselves. Being comfortable is not about what you look like, but how you feel.

I don’t feel the need to prove myself to others, but to prove myself to myself.

In a couple, sometimes, one or both people have to give up their personal life, dreams and ambitions for the good of the family.

If You want a man to notice you, just wear red lipstick

Usually, I’m only sad when something sad happens. I am not a melancholic person. I like to live very much in the present. If I was an animal, I’d be a little cat. They like to live life.

My career, at the moment, is very exciting, but love comes first because it balances me.

Time destroys everything.

When you’re in front of the camera, for a small budget or a big budget movie, there’s no difference.

Now, all the movies are for teenagers. It’s very difficult for an actress to find really deep, beautiful characters to play.

I’m a lucky person because I’ve been loved a lot. I have a great family.

People are very passionate in Italy. If you like something, you like something. If you hate something, you hate something. When you hate something, you are screaming.

When a relationship doesn’t work anymore, it’s terrible to stay with someone that you don’t love.

Outside Christ, I am empty; in Christ, I am full.

Truly, there is a Christian note which makes the whole World vibrate, like an immense gong, in the divine Christ. This note is unique and universal, and in it alone consists the Gospel.

To say that Christ is the term and motive force of evolution, to say that he manifests himself as ‘evolver,’ is implicitly to recognize that he becomes attainable in and through the whole process of evolution.

I believe in the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

Certain though I am – and ever more certain – that I must press on in life as though Christ awaited me at the term of the universe, at the same time I feel no special assurance of the existence of Christ. Believing is not seeing. As much as anyone, I imagine, I walk in the shadows of faith.

I find that my upbringing in the Church and my relationship with God are huge benefits to me in helping me become the kind of person that I want to become.

Everything I do is deeply rooted in my faith and especially in Jesus Christ.

You will be that inevitably–but primarily we are saved in order to be conformed to the likeness of Jesus Christ, God’s Son.
