More quotes by Elizabeth Taylor
Maggie the cat is alive. I'm alive.
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
The beauty of fragrance is that it speaks to your heart and hopefully someone else's.
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 feel very adventurous. There are so many doors to be opened, and I'm not afraid to look behind them.
Elizabeth Taylor
John Wayne is as tough as an old nut and as soft as a yellow ribbon.
Elizabeth Taylor
If you can't laugh at yourself, you're cooked!
Elizabeth Taylor
I mean, how many young women get a set of rubies just for doing something wholesome like swimming laps? Or win a diamond ring at Ping-Pong with their husband... ? Well, I did, and for all of these memories and the people in my life I feel blessed.
Elizabeth Taylor
I like the connection with fans and people who have been supportive of me. And I love the idea of real feedback and a two-way street, which is very, very modern.
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
I always wanted to have a fragrance, and I always wanted to be able to connect with people in ways other than through film.
Elizabeth Taylor
So much is said with the electricity of the eyes, the intensity of a whisper. Less is more.
Elizabeth Taylor
I don't have a short temper, I just have a quick reaction to bullshit
Elizabeth Taylor
[On Antony's death] Strange, there has never been... such a silence.
Elizabeth Taylor
I hate to try to be that person in my own skin, in my own way, in my own head, not through exercises or anything else, just by, I guess, belief, concentration.
Elizabeth Taylor
I wear perfume even when I’m alone
Elizabeth Taylor
When you're older, you'll appreciate the advantages of sleeping alone.
Elizabeth Taylor
No matter what happens, I'm loud, noisy, earthy and ready for much more living.
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
When people say, 'She's got everything', I've got one answer - I haven't had tomorrow.
Elizabeth Taylor
