More quotes by Elizabeth Taylor
You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot before the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That's how I've done it. There's no other way.

Elizabeth Taylor
Sometimes I think we know too much about our idols and that spoils the dream.
Elizabeth Taylor
Just in case you get pneumonia or die. The dangerous bits are always the last days of shooting.
Elizabeth Taylor
Originally, we were going to set up a cappuccino bar in the showroom, but we've been so busy, ... We decided when we're old and grey, we're going to set up a coffee shop, and we formed the company about 18 months ago when we thought of the name. It's going to be TLC - Tastes Like Chocolate.
Elizabeth Taylor
I love to be casual and comfortable, but I also love the easy glamour of wearing jewelry all the time.
Elizabeth Taylor
Follow your passions, follow your heart, and the things you need will come.
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm loud and I'm vulgar, and I wear the pants in the house because somebody's got to, but I am not a monster. I'm not.
Elizabeth Taylor
I feel very adventurous. There are so many doors to be opened, and I'm not afraid to look behind them.
Elizabeth Taylor
My favorite name for a color is puce. It's kind of a dried blood color. It's a hideous color. But I love the word. It's so euphonic. But my favorite colors are lavender, purple, periwinkle blue, and white.
Elizabeth Taylor
Now is the time for guts and guile.
Elizabeth Taylor
You are who you are. All you can do in this world is help others to be who they are and better themselves.
