María Félix's quotes

  • Me Empty? Nobody has seen inside of me.
  • What can I do? I can't be ugly.
  • Some friends told me that pearls make people cry. The only pearls that have made me cry are false pearls
  • [upon being asked her age by a journalist] Look, young lady, I have been very busy living my life and I've not had time to count it.
  • I cannot complain about men. I have had tons of them and they have treated me fabulously well. But sometimes I had to hurt them to keep them from subjugating me.
  • I believe I can consider the fact that having had portraits made of myself is manifesting a form of certain narcissism, but I cannot help it
  • Money is important in life. It does not give you happiness, we all know, but it sure calms the nerves.
  • In life, I consider success inferior to celebrity. Success can be attained by many people; celebrity touches you, and supports you through life.
  • [on her films] I don't want to make pictures which people are not going to understand. I don't see any point to it. I want people to be entertained.
  • [when asked about making more films] I don't need the money. My reward now comes in seeing lines at the box office waiting to see a movie of mine.
  • [when asked about her few television appearances] If people see too much of me on that little screen while they're sitting at home, they're not going to go out to see me in a movie. That would take away my life's greatest satisfaction.
  • [1949] I know I am beautiful and I cannot deny it because I would be denying a very great favor God did to me.
  • [When asked if she was a lesbian] If all men looked like you, then of course I am.
  • [on Dolores del Rio] She was a hypocrite, but she was interesting because she was intelligent.
  • I don't know the word "diva". I've never understood it. I, diva? Well... they called Maria Callas a diva. I'm a cool woman, a cool diva, possibly.
