Thoughts on the death of Elizabeth Taylor:
. . . there are two things worth remembering about Liz Taylor — she was, in the beauty department, a bird of paradise. Second, though she endured a great deal of ridicule for her — was it eight marriages — she explained that she just couldn't bring herself to have “affairs.” If she was romantically involved with someone, it had “to lead to the altar.”
She certainly was a breathtaking beauty, definitely on my "if I could just go back in time and meet her when she was 20" list.
