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
The public library is more than a repository of books. It's a mysterious, wondrous place with the power to change lives.
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
On Michael Jackson and child stardom: He had one of the worst childhoods ever. I think I had the second.
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
The beauty of fragrance is that it speaks to your heart and hopefully someone else's.
Elizabeth Taylor
I never tried to act until A Place in the Sun.
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
If someone's dumb enough to offer me a million dollars to make a picture, I'm certainly not dumb enough to turn it down.
Elizabeth Taylor
To me, acting is a matter of absolute concentration. You can laugh and giggle with your friends up to the minute the director says, Action! Then you snap your mind into shape and into the character that you're playing and relate to the people that you're acting with and forget everybody else that you've been joking with.
Elizabeth Taylor
Maggie the cat is alive. I'm alive.
Elizabeth Taylor
If you can't laugh at yourself, you're cooked!
Elizabeth Taylor
I don't love acting I love chocolate.
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
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
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'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 love going to rock concerts, I love to lose myself in that vast wave of rhythm and body heat and get on the same vibe.
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 haven't read any of the autobiographies about me.
