More quotes by Elizabeth Taylor
Everything makes me nervous - except making films.
Elizabeth Taylor
This is a book that respects kids and their ideas. And in that regard, it places Chasing Vermeer in the tradition of classic favorites fondly recalled from our own childhoods.
Elizabeth Taylor
Michael Jackson is one of the most normal people I know.
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
I left home as soon as I could, when I was 18. I thought I was in love and got married - the press called it Prince Charming and Cinderella. He was a Hilton so I was the poor little Cinderella. And when I got a divorce nine months later I never told the court why, but he was cruel.
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 haven't read any of the autobiographies about me.
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
What is a genius? What is a living legend? What is a megastar? Michael Jackson -- that's all. And when you think you know him, he gives you more. I think he is one of the finest people to hit this planet, and, in my estimation, he is the true King of Pop, Rock and Soul.
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
No matter what happens, I'm loud, noisy, earthy and ready for much more living.
Elizabeth Taylor
When you're older, you'll appreciate the advantages of sleeping alone.
Elizabeth Taylor
Just in case you get pneumonia or die. The dangerous bits are always the last days of shooting.
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm a survivor - a living example of what people can go through and survive.
Elizabeth Taylor
The ups and downs, the problems and stress, along with all the happiness, have given me optimism and hope because I am living proof of survival.
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm not like anyone. I'm me.
Elizabeth Taylor
I wear perfume even when I’m alone
Elizabeth Taylor
I adore wearing gems, but not because they are mine. You can't possess radiance, you can only admire it.
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
It is strange that the years teach us patience that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.
Elizabeth Taylor
