He is part of my heart. We would do anything for each other.
Elizabeth Taylor
He was the epitome of the movie star -- so romantic, such bearing, such friendliness.
Elizabeth Taylor
His image had as much impact in the world as many of our presidents have had, but Duke was a great actor, a great humanitarian, but always himself. To be a friend was a lifetime thing.

I don't think President Bush is doing anything at all about Aids. In fact, I'm not sure he even knows how to spell Aids.
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
I fell off my pink cloud with a thud.
Elizabeth Taylor
I had a hollow leg. I could drink everyone under the table and not get drunk. My capacity was terrifying.
Elizabeth Taylor
I have a woman's body and a child's emotions.
Elizabeth Taylor
I haven't read any of the autobiographies about me.
Elizabeth Taylor
I really don't remember much about Cleopatra. There were a lot of other things going on.
Elizabeth Taylor
I suppose when they reach a certain age some men are afraid to grow up. It seems the older the men get, the younger their new wives get.
Elizabeth Taylor
I sweat real sweat and I shake real shakes.
Elizabeth Taylor
I think I'm finally growing up - and about time.
Elizabeth Taylor
I wish I could be that size, but I can‘t be. I enjoy food too much. I‘m too hedonistic. I enjoy pleasures.
Elizabeth Taylor
I, along with the critics, have never taken myself very seriously.
Elizabeth Taylor
If not to make the world better, what is money for?
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
I'm a survivor - a living example of what people can go through and survive.
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm afraid in those last few years I gave him a rather rough time. Sort of henpecked him and probably wasn't mature enough for him. It wasn't that we had anything to fight over. We just weren't happy.
Elizabeth Taylor
I'm not taking anything away from Debbie [Debbie Reynolds] because she never really had it.
Elizabeth Taylor
It is strange that the years teach us patience; that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.
Elizabeth Taylor
It's not the having, it's the getting.
Elizabeth Taylor
I've always admitted that I'm ruled by my passions.
Elizabeth Taylor
I've been through it all, baby, I'm mother courage.
Elizabeth Taylor
I've only slept with men I've been married to. How many women can make that claim?
Elizabeth Taylor
Marriage is a great institution.
Elizabeth Taylor
Men first. Myself. Then other women. ‘Cause you can’t please women. They are horribly critical of each other. And more so if you’re famous. Meow.
Elizabeth Taylor
Monty was the most emotional actor I have ever worked with. And it is contagious.
Elizabeth Taylor
My mother says I didn't open my eyes for eight days after I was born, but when I did, the first thing I saw was an engagement ring. I was hooked.

One problem with people who have no vices is that they're pretty sure to have some annoying virtues.
Elizabeth Taylor
People who know me well, call me Elizabeth. I dislike Liz.
Elizabeth Taylor
She 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
So much to do, so little done, such things to be.
Elizabeth Taylor
Some of my best leading men have been dogs and horses.

The most gorgeous thing in the world and easily one of the best actors.

Elizabeth Taylor
There's still so much more to do. I can't sit back and be complacent, and none of us should be. I get around now in a wheelchair, but I get around.
Elizabeth Taylor
What is a genius? What is a living legend? What is a mega star? 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
When people say, 'She's got everything', I've got one answer - I haven't had tomorrow.
Elizabeth Taylor
When you're fat, the world is divided into two groups - people who bug you and people who leave you alone. The funny thing is, supporters and saboteurs exist in either camp.
Elizabeth Taylor
You find out who your real friends are when you're involved in a scandal.
