More quotes by Elizabeth Taylor
So much is said with the electricity of the eyes, the intensity of a whisper. Less is more.
Elizabeth Taylor
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.
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've never had an acting lesson. I've never been given techniques. Everything I've done is invented. I just sort of found out [how to do it].
Elizabeth Taylor
When people say, 'She's got everything', I've got one answer - I haven't had tomorrow.
Elizabeth Taylor
Sometimes I think we know too much about our idols and that spoils the dream.
Elizabeth Taylor
Seems like we always spend the best part of our time just saying goodbye.
Elizabeth Taylor
I hate myself on the screen. I want to die ... my voice is either too high or too gravelly. I want to dive under the carpet.... I'd love to be tall and willowy ... I'm short.
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
You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot before the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That's how I've done it. There's no other way.
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
I hate being called Liz, because it can sound like such a hiss.
Elizabeth Taylor
The things that are important to me - being a mother, a businesswoman, an activist - are all things that were borne out of great passion.
Elizabeth Taylor
My forties are the best time I have ever gone through.
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 have a set pattern. I take things as they come. Usually with a great amount of relish. I just lay back and wait for it to happen. And it usually does.
Elizabeth Taylor
I don't love acting I love chocolate.
Elizabeth Taylor
Originally, we were going to set up a cappuccino bar in the showroom, but we've been so busy, ... We decided when we're old and grey, we're going to set up a coffee shop, and we formed the company about 18 months ago when we thought of the name. It's going to be TLC - Tastes Like Chocolate.
Elizabeth Taylor
If you can't laugh at yourself, you're cooked!
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm a survivor - a living example of what people can go through and survive.
Elizabeth Taylor
