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 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
When people say, 'She's got everything', I've got one answer - I haven't had tomorrow.
Elizabeth Taylor
Oh, I love red. I'm very loyal to my colors. I love violet.
