I find clothes so constricting!

Ive always been a health fanatic.

You can't fake listening. It shows.

The mind can also be an erogenous zone.

I think that women should be decorative.

There aren't any hard women, only soft men.

There's a duality in every man and every woman.

Being a sex symbol was rather like being a convict.

It's necessary, at some point, to destroy your beauty.

You know what's the sexiest thing of all? A little mystery.

My body is the shape I live in and it shapes the way I live.

My name is Raquel Welch. I am here for visual effects, and I have two of them.

I was asked to come to Chicago because Chicago is one of our fifty-two states.

I'm far more ready to go with the flow now because I am more accepting of myself.

I inherited good skin from my mother, and I stay away from soap, which dries it out.

Change excites me. I am fifty years old. It's when the mind catches up with the body.

Myra Breckenridge is the antithesis of sex symbol. Shes revolutionary; shes a warrior.

I COULDN'T stand that my husband was being unfaithful. I am Raquel Welch - understand?

the brain, the mind, and all the things that happen inside it, it's a very erogenous zone.

Weight-bearing exercises can help ward off osteoporosis and yoga helps ward off arthritis.

Turning 60 was not a happy time. I didn't think 'I'm falling apart,' but I did re-examine my priorities.

Just as you maintain your home, your car, your garden, you should look after your greatest gift: your body.

For a woman to be considered a celebrated beauty is not exactly a bad thing. I think we have to say that in all reality.

What they say about footballers being ignorant is rubbish. I spoke to a couple yesterday and they are quite intelligent.

Im the antidote to Lindsay Lohan. I know she misbehaves terribly, but sometimes it just seems like its open season on her.

Without women to nurture in this world, how do - how do men get by? How do children get by? How does society get by at all?

People do stop me and talk to me about something they saw that they loved. It is very satisfying, but I have my own opinions.

My father was Bolivian, which makes me half-Bolivian. It's where I got some of my exotic features and certainly my skin tone.

When I was 13, I saw him [Elvis] perform live and I suddenly understood what sex is all about. I was screaming at the top of my lungs.

We all have a childhood dream that when there is love, everything goes like silk, but the reality is that marriage requires a lot of compromise.

I was not a classic mother. But my kids were never palmed off to boarding school. So, I didn't bake cookies. You can buy cookies, but you can't buy love.

I felt like, you know, my presence in the world of cinema had a different meaning than Meryl Streep... There was an impact that was made, but it wasn't the usual.

I'm a hard worker, very driven, and have never expected anything to come easily. My yoga, a great rejuvenator, helped me to live down my image - this sex symbol thing. It helps me connect with myself.
