“You can’t fake listening. It shows.”

It’s necessary, at some point, to destroy your beauty.

For a woman to be considered a celebrated beauty is not exactly a bad thing. I think we have to say that in all reality.

We all have a childhood dream that when there is love, everything goes like silk, but the reality is that marriage requires a lot of compromise.

My body is the shape I live in and it shapes the way I live.

Just as you maintain your home, your car, your garden, you should look after your greatest gift: your body.

Myra Breckenridge is the antithesis of sex symbol. She’s revolutionary; she’s a warrior.

I think that women should be decorative.

I COULDN’T stand that my husband was being unfaithful. I am Raquel Welch – understand?

There aren’t any hard women, only soft men.

Being a sex symbol was rather like being a convict.

As far as I’ve been alive, women have always been more or less the symbol of sexuality rather than the male. We don’t see the naked male body, as the symbol of sex.

Latinos are here to stay. As citizen Raquel, I’m proud to be Latina.

I was not a classic mother. But my kids were never palmed off to boarding school. So, I didn’t bake cookies. You can buy cookies, but you can’t buy love.

Not everybody is comfortable with my ethnicity. When I first came along in the business, they didnt really like the idea of my name being Raquel.

I was always willing to take a great deal of the burden of getting along in life on my own shoulders, but I wasn’t willing to give myself a pat on the back. I was always looking to somebody else to give me that. .. That was all wrong.

You know what’s the sexiest thing of all? A little mystery.

Sometimes I feel like an X-Ray machine cause I can see right through your fake face.

Have the courage to unfollow unreal people from your life.

Sometimes people fake on each other out of genuine motives to hold onto the object of their tenderest feelings.

You deserve much more than the fake love they promise to give you.

Modern life is so thin and shallow and fake. I look forward to when developers go bankrupt, Japan gets poorer and wild grasses take over.

The love be fake, but the obsession be real.

Vulnerability is hard – faking it forever is harder.

If you realize that a lot of people are fake in your life, make no time to declutter yourself.
