Personal quotes
"There were times when I'd go, 'This outfit would look so badass with stilettos.' You wanted those 4-inch heels, those wrappy, strappy, show-off-your pedicure shoes, but you couldn't do it. At the beginning of the scene it would have been fine because I'm just hanging out with the dude. But the next thing you know, you're kicking the dude's rear, so you had to make sure you had the right shoes on."
"I didn't realize it [The Mask (1994)] was a fairly large film that I was a part of. Halfway through I was going, 'Is there any place that my mom and dad can see this film?' and they're going, 'Cameron, at the theatres.' I had no idea. Durrrrrrr. I'm blonde. I'm allowed."
"One thing I realized from Julia [Roberts, _My Best Friend's Wedding (1997)_ co-star] - which I knew before, but was made very clear - is that when you're the star of the film, the crew looks to you to set the tone of everyday work. So when you come into work, whatever it is that you're giving off, that is what the tone is going to be for the working conditions."
On Being John Malkovich (1999): "it's been said that in Hollywood there are only 14 different scripts. Well, this is number 15."
"Your regrets aren't what you did, but what you didn't do. So I take every opportunity."
"I grew up with a lot of boys. I probably have a lot of testosterone for a woman."
"Growing up, I was the plain one. I had no style. I was the tough kid with the comb in the back pocket and the feathered hair."
"I would kiss a frog even if there were no promise of a Prince Charming popping out of it. I love frogs. I'd lick him."
"We have a voice now and we're not using it. Women have so much to lose. I mean, we could lose the right to our bodies. If you think rape should be legal then don't vote. But if you think you have a right to your body and you have a right to say what happens to you and fight off that danger of losing that, then you should vote."
"My Latin roots are very strong. All my life, because I'm blonde and blue-eyed, people who aren't Hispanic can't believe I am. And people who are Hispanic always think I'm not, because I don't look like them. Being Latin is part of who I am and I bring that part to every role."
"What we women need to do, instead of worrying about what we don't have, is just love what we do have." quoted Women's World (6-14-05)
"Toronto has such a nice balance as far as the films they show there. They kind of give an opportunity to everybody. You get the best of the best there. It's a good standard to be held up against, and it's very flattering to be in that festival."
"I'm like every other woman: a closet full of clothes, but nothing to wear: So I wear jeans." quoted in Woman's World 1-3-06
"I know what you're saying, I really do. I just cannot respond to you back in Spanish. I can barely speak English properly. I didn't grow up in a Cuban or Latin community. I grew up in Southern California on the beach, basically. And I'm third generation. I'm of Cuban descent, but I'm American." - when asked if she can speak Spanish
