Elizabeth Taylor

I would love to continue in music, with writing... but I am not the kind of person who will hang around if I start to become irrelevant.

Taylor Swift

James A. Baldwin

My greatest trouble is getting the curtain up and down.
T. S. Eliot

I like everything. Boyish girls, girlish boys, the heavy and the skinny. Which is a problem when I'm walking down the street.
Angelina Jolie
