I look at other women. When I'm at a party, I sometimes say, Look at her, she's got fantastic breasts. We can sit all night talking about girls. (Allende Isabel)
She is tough, she is independent, she is edgy, she gets involved in the action. (Allende Isabel)
When I was producing on my own, I was doing it in order to - in a very patriarchal entertainment industry, let alone planet - very much hell-bent on trying to prove to myself, if nothing else, that I could do it as a woman. (Allende Isabel)
If they keep crashing stuff into the moon, the moon's gonna get pissed off, and the tides'll change, and all the women'll start PMS-ing together. Then you guys are going to fucking regret it. (Allende Isabel)

Women must understand that simply attacking or hating men is just another form of disempowerment. A woman has to realize that when she makes a man crawl it doesn't give her power. (Allende Isabel)
The violence betwen women is unbelievable. Women try to make each other crawl so that their knees are bleeding. (Allende Isabel)
I don't really see where I fit into that group, but I'm very flattered. I think, though, all of us women, regardless of how different we are as artists, come from a similar place in terms of how we view our role as a female musician. All of us are pretty feisty. And I think that that's what people identify with. Because there seem to be so few women right now who are interested in having an opinion. Having something to say. Trying to do things a little differently. Refusing to take our clothes off to further our careers. (Allende Isabel)
I like the feeling that I'm giving young women self-confidence. It sounds so cliched, but it can be very moving. (Allende Isabel)
I have got one of those faces that change every day: you can dress me up, make me look vampy and then make me look 12 years old. But don't all women do this thing? We all take on these roles. (Allende Isabel)
Yes, it's a man's world, but that's all right because they're making a total mess of it. We're chipping away at their control, taking the parts we want. Some women think it's a difficult task, but it's not. (Allende Isabel)
Women have to harness their power - its absolutely true. It's just learning not to take the first no. And if you can't go straight ahead, you go around the corner. (Allende Isabel)
A girl can wait for the right man to come along but in the meantime that still doesn't mean she can't have a wonderful time with all the wrong ones. (Allende Isabel)
The bickering and fighting and hating that women do with each other - it's going to kill us as a race of people. (Allende Isabel)
[But Alba defends the film from accusations that it is misogynistic.] The women are completely empowered, ... It's not just women being victimized. It's everybody. (Allende Isabel)
Women now, we can juggle a lot of things. We're not just girlfriends or love interests. So that's really great to not just make her the chick and give her something to do. (Allende Isabel)
Women in the military thank me for portraying a character who's feminine and attractive and sexual and yet still strong and intelligent and in the military. I think people have this perception that to be strong and a military woman you have to look a certain way or not be feminine. (Allende Isabel)
She's a (lesbian), but with a body like that she could get any man she wants. (Allende Isabel)
I think a look is important only in live performances. Boys want to see a pretty girl instead of an ugly girl. (Allende Isabel)
You find Latin girls who are as dark or darker than I am, so it wasn't about where they came from, ... I think people just like to celebrate their own beauty now rather than be put into a box. (Allende Isabel)
This country has really moved on to a more multicultural way of thinking, ... I just want to celebrate the women. Sure this is all about makeup, but it's also about some other things that are more deeply rooted. I just want to open a dialogue where we can talk about these things, where we can define our own beauty and approve of ourselves. We have to approve of ourselves before anyone else will. Women need to celebrate their God-given beauty instead of always trying to be something else. (Allende Isabel)
We are not women of color. I am a woman with skin of color. I am not an ethnicity, but a skin tone. That's why my book covers everything from a blond and blue-eyed Brazilian to a woman from the Philippines who may be as dark as I am. (Allende Isabel)
I'm looking forward to joining the... roster of women who have personified the image of beauty for Estee Lauder over the years. This is an incredible opportunity. (Allende Isabel)
I think women can be as cruel as men, and men as tender as women, and vice versa. (Allende Isabel)
You know, when you don't go on TV and talk about how many women you sleep with, some people in Hollywood, that are supposedly 'in the know,' start whispering that you're gay. If I were gay, I wouldn't be ashamed to admit it, but I'm not. (Allende Isabel)
They say a lot of women would like to see me naked, but there's not a lens long enough for that. (Allende Isabel)
