More quotes by Mariangela Melato

People know what they need to know about me. I don't think people love me any less because I don't talk about my personal life.

(About Alida Valli) I can say one thing that sums it all up: I loved her, and I still love her very much. She was wonderful because she was, and still is, beautiful inside and out.

I only agree to take on roles that I find interesting; I don't let myself be dazzled by money alone.

(About Nino Manfredi) He might have seemed fussy and sometimes a bit of a pain, but that wasn't a flaw. He was a simple person who knew how to talk to simple people. Many people have talked about perfection, but it was from him that I learned the desire to achieve it.
