It is bad enough that people are dying of AIDS, but no one should die of ignorance.
Elizabeth Taylor
I just loved the feeling of flying. I could jump six feet bareback and it was the closest thing to being Pegasus and flying next to God. It's the most liberating freedom-making feeling in the world.
Elizabeth Taylor
So much is said with the electricity of the eyes, the intensity of a whisper. Less is more.
Elizabeth Taylor
... there is no deodorant like success.
Elizabeth Taylor
I was so strictly brought up that the only time I could get away would be on my own pony. I could ride wherever I wanted on my godfather's estate in Kent.I wasn't brought up to be afraid of anything.
Elizabeth Taylor

I don't like my voice. I don't like the way I look. I don't like the way I move. I don't like the way I act. I mean, period. So, you know, I don't like myself.
Elizabeth Taylor
Success is a great deodorant.
Elizabeth Taylor
On Michael Jackson and child stardom: He had one of the worst childhoods ever. I think I had the second.
Elizabeth Taylor
The most sensible thing to do to people you hate is to drink their brandy.
Elizabeth Taylor
To me, acting is a matter of absolute concentration. You can laugh and giggle with your friends up to the minute the director says, Action! Then you snap your mind into shape and into the character that you're playing and relate to the people that you're acting with and forget everybody else that you've been joking with.
Elizabeth Taylor
Maggie the cat is alive. I'm alive.
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
No matter what happens, I'm loud, noisy, earthy and ready for much more living.
Elizabeth Taylor
