Quotes
[edit]- Interviewer: What do you think when I say the word "tomorrow"? Cardinaletti: It's a bit like saying ‘what's around the corner’, to quote a master. I've often thought about it: around the corner for me there's a restaurant. Tomorrow, maybe a new adventure.
- Quoted in Giuseppe Bosso, «Giorgia Cardinaletti: dico sì al var», telegiornaliste.it, 27 March 2019.
- When I was a child, I always spent my holidays in Senigallia, where we moved in the summer. I have vivid memories of that time. My paternal grandmother, the loudspeaker that started broadcasting at 11 a.m. and 5 p.m., which was the signal for us children that we could go swimming, and evening walks along the seafront. It was a holiday resort, not a holiday. It was a time of great freedom.
- Quoted in Edoardo Danieli, Giorgia Cardinaletti dopo le Olimpiadi è in ferie a Fabriano: «Marche e famiglia, vacanze da sogno. Meno libertà? Si vive bene lo stesso», corriereadriatico.it, 21 August 2021.

- (About Cardinaletti's reaction when she was offered the job of presenting La Domenica Sportiva) What did I do when I found out? I organised a conference call with my parents and my brothers, Michelangelo and Raffaello, who live in Canada and Perugia. I felt perplexed and excited. And scared, of course.
- My father has always had a music and record shop, my mother is a biologist and works in food hygiene.
- I continue to live as simply as before. I still feel a bit like a daughter of La Califfa, the nickname given to me by Bevilacqua himself when I told him that my parents went to see his film on their first date.
- It's not that I cook a lot... I mostly just eat. In fact, a man can win me over with food. I still adore my mum's lasagne. Lasagne makes me feel at home...
- I am grateful to my parents for letting me travel. I went to Thailand when I was little. And every year I treat myself to a Thelma & Louise-style holiday with my mum. The best one was in Oman.
- My favourite musical style is that of Armando Trovajoli, I would listen to it at every moment of my life. I follow the latest trap music with curiosity. But in the end, I always prefer Celentano, Battisti, Ivan Graziani, Tenco. De André, Mina and Dalla are the absolute podium; without them, my life would have been infinitely more miserable. But I also spent my entire adolescence in the myth of Leonardo DiCaprio.
- (About football) It's the belly of the country. There are all kinds of footballers, I don't see them as angels or demons, but as professionals who believe in their dreams.
