I have never felt more alive than when I watched my children delight in something, never more alive than when I have watched a great artist perform, and never richer than when I have scored a big check to fight AIDS.

More quotes by Elizabeth Taylor
I don't pretend to be an ordinary housewife.
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
Everything was handed to me - looks, fame, wealth, honour, love. I rarely had to fight for anything
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm not worried about dying. I consult with God, my maker. And I don't have a lot of problems to work out. I'm pretty squared anyway.
Elizabeth Taylor
I wear perfume even when I’m alone
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
I was born with scoliosis. I have a double curvature of the spine, and it's forced me to use a wheelchair because the disease has really taken hold. It really saddens me that I can't ride.
Elizabeth Taylor

Elizabeth Taylor
Being able to go on location and see the world was the greatest perk of all.
Elizabeth Taylor
When I'm not with the one I love, I love the one I'm with.
Elizabeth Taylor
I have a woman's body and a child's emotions.
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
The beauty of fragrance is that it speaks to your heart and hopefully someone else's.
Elizabeth Taylor
My forties are the best time I have ever gone through.
Elizabeth Taylor
Everything makes me nervous - except making films.
Elizabeth Taylor
A name no longer carries a film. People used to go to the cinema to see a John Wayne film. And you don't have that thing happening now except in the rock world, which has taken the event out of movies.
Elizabeth Taylor
I love to be casual and comfortable, but I also love the easy glamour of wearing jewelry all the time.
Elizabeth Taylor
Every breath you take today should be with someone else in mind.
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
When people say, 'She's got everything', I've got one answer - I haven't had tomorrow.
