Elizabeth Taylor
John Wayne is as tough as an old nut and as soft as a yellow ribbon.

You can always avert throwing yourself in front of an oncoming train. There is something that just pulls you away - and it has pulled me away, because I'm not dead yet - just at the brink of impact. Sometimes I have been really grazed by that train.
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm not like anyone. I'm me.

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
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
It is strange that the years teach us patience that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.
Elizabeth Taylor
I mean, how many young women get a set of rubies just for doing something wholesome like swimming laps? Or win a diamond ring at Ping-Pong with their husband... ? Well, I did, and for all of these memories and the people in my life I feel blessed.
Elizabeth Taylor
Give. Remember always to give. That is the one thing that will make you grow.
Elizabeth Taylor
You find out who your real friends are when you're involved in a scandal.
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 feel very adventurous. There are so many doors to be opened, and I'm not afraid to look behind them.
Elizabeth Taylor
