• In the United States those bits of our history that remain are paved over, sanitized, packaged for easy consumption.

• I was interesting in discovering more about [Elizabeth Taylor], and I always tried to focus more on the woman than the legend or the icon and everybody's own individual version of what that is.

She was extreme, but she had the ability to love again and again and again and still believe in it every time.
