The girl who swears no one has ever made love to her has a right to swear.
I was born wise. Street-wise, people-wise, self-wise. This wisdom was my birthright.
I think the quality of sexiness comes from within.
I eat a lot of salad, a little meat, and some fruit—that’s all. But I like sweets.
I'm a very shy person and I never tried to do theater.
I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up.
I can't bear being seen naked. I'm not exactly a tiny woman. When Sophia Loren is naked, this is a lot of nakedness.
I was so skinny, they gave me the nickname stechetto - the stick. I was tall, thin, ugly and dark like an Arab girl. I looked strange. All eyes. No flesh on my bones.
[William] Klein has eyes like a knife. He is ruthless and outrageous but never mean - he is tender and funny and violent - and, I'm sure, really in love with our crazy Rome.
There's no pleasure in working if you don't do the things you want to do.
I'm a giraffe. I even walk like a giraffe with a long neck and legs. It's a pretty dumb animal, mind you.
When you find yourself a mom, you will be by no means seriously by itself with your ideas. A mother usually should think twice, once for herself and once for her boy or girl.
I'm an actress. It's my passion.
