I Believe That Change Keeps You Young.

When I'm Doing A Movie, That's When I Relax. As Stressful As It Can Be, As Much Pressure As It Should Be, Making Movies Is Still The Place Where I Feel The Most At Ease And I Truly Enjoy It. That's Why I Make So Many.

What Worries Me The Most Is That Most Men Are So Weak. Because Of That They Act Like They Don't Care And Like Machos - Because They Are Too Fragile Inside. They're Scared Of Confrontation And Afraid Of So Many Things.

When I Started Acting, I Was Told Over And Over Again, 'you're No Good.' But I Said To Myself, 'you've Got To Keep It Up.'

For Me, I Have To Say That I Like To Work A Lot Too, But I Like Not Working Better. The Perfect Scenario Is When You Just Worked And You Know Something's Coming Up, Then You Have Four, Five, Six Months Off. But You Know You're Going To Have A Job Later.

I Had To Endure The Worst Time Of All In Terms Of Racial Discrimination In Hollywood When I First Started Out. It Was Inconcievable To American Directors And Producers That A Mexican Woman Could Have A Lead Role.
