A mother has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.
I always try to have a vacation.
It's a mistake to think that once you're done with school you need never learn anything new.
Though poor and anxious to work, I refused to alter anything. They would take me as I looked or not at all.... Eventually I profited by looking like myself and not like what was fashionable years ago with certain film technicians in Rome.
You cannot say, because I am from Naples so I like the mixture of drama and comedy all together.
I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up.
I'm a very shy person and I never tried to do theater.
I'm an actress. It's my passion.
Beauty is how you feel inside...
Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.
For me, it is good to be vulnerable. It makes me nice... weak sometimes, but in a good way, not a tragic way.
Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself...
Style must be adapted to the woman and not vice versa. The same can be said of clothes.
The Fountain of Youth is in your mind.
