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.

More quotes by Elizabeth Taylor
On Michael Jackson and child stardom: He had one of the worst childhoods ever. I think I had the second.
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm loud and I'm vulgar, and I wear the pants in the house because somebody's got to, but I am not a monster. I'm not.
Elizabeth Taylor
Maggie the cat is alive. I'm alive.
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
Marilyn Monroe seemed to have a kind of unconscious glow about her physical self that was innocent, like a child. When she posed nude, it was 'Gee, I am kind of, you know, sort of dishy,' like she enjoyed it without being egotistical.
Elizabeth Taylor
Success is a great deodorant. It takes away all your past smells.
Elizabeth Taylor

It's amazing the gymnastics you can do when you don't want to do something. How you can force yourself against all the forces of nature. I threw myself backward.
Elizabeth Taylor
It is strange that the years teach us patience that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.
Elizabeth Taylor
I use my fame now when I want to help a cause or other people.
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 have a woman's body and a child's emotions.
Elizabeth Taylor
When I'm not with the one I love, I love the one I'm with.
Elizabeth Taylor
I love to be casual and comfortable, but I also love the easy glamour of wearing jewelry all the time.
Elizabeth Taylor
I never tried to act until A Place in the Sun.
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
I believe in mind over matter and doing anything you set your mind on.
Elizabeth Taylor
[On Antony's death] Strange, there has never been... such a silence.
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
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
