More quotes by Elizabeth Taylor
It is strange that the years teach us patience that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.
Elizabeth Taylor
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.
Elizabeth Taylor
I love to be casual and comfortable, but I also love the easy glamour of wearing jewelry all the time.
Elizabeth Taylor
When people say, 'She's got everything', I've got one answer - I haven't had tomorrow.
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
Maggie the cat is alive. I'm alive.

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!

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
If you can't laugh at yourself, you're cooked!
Elizabeth Taylor
I sweat real sweat and I shake real shakes.
Elizabeth Taylor
I don't have a short temper, I just have a quick reaction to bullshit
Elizabeth Taylor
Marriage is a great institution.
Elizabeth Taylor
Every breath you take today should be with someone else in mind.
Elizabeth Taylor
I don't pretend to be an ordinary housewife.
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
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
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
