Maggie the cat is alive. I'm alive.
Elizabeth Taylor
It is strange that the years teach us patience that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.
Elizabeth Taylor
Marilyn Monroe seemed to have a kind of unconscious glow about her physical self that was innocent, like a child. When she posed nude, it was 'Gee, I am kind of, you know, sort of dishy,' like she enjoyed it without being egotistical.
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.
Elizabeth Taylor

Elizabeth Taylor
Follow your passions, follow your heart, and the things you need will come.
Elizabeth Taylor

Elizabeth Taylor
Acting is, to me now, artificial. Seeing people suffer is real. It couldn't be more real. Some people don't like to look at it in the face because it's painful. But if nobody does, then nothing gets done.
Elizabeth Taylor
I love to be casual and comfortable, but I also love the easy glamour of wearing jewelry all the time.
Elizabeth Taylor
I feel like 45. I don't look bad for someone my age, with my history of illnesses and operations and all those anesthetics. When they knock you out, it gives you time to catch up on your beauty sleep.
Elizabeth Taylor
You can't choose between right and wrong by taking a census.
Elizabeth Taylor
It is bad enough that people are dying of AIDS, but no one should die of ignorance.
Elizabeth Taylor
I've never thought of my jewelry as trophies. I'm here to take care of it and to love it, for we are only temporary custodians of beauty.
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm a survivor - a living example of what people can go through and survive.
Elizabeth Taylor
