For instance, she was the mother of world-famous Liza Minelli! Not many people know that one. She was also very under-appreciated and conflicted during her lifetime. If you want to get to know the real Judy, these fourteen quotes are a good place to start.

1. 'Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.'

2. 'How strange when an illusion dies. It's as though you've lost a child.'

3. 'If I'm such a legend, then why am I so lonely? Let me tell you, legends are all very well if you've got somebody around who loves you.'

4. 'We cast away priceless time in dreams, born of imagination, fed upon illusion, and put to death by reality.'

5. 'I was born at the age of twelve on an MGM lot.'

6. 'My life, my career has been like a roller coaster. I've either been an enormous success or just a down-and-out failure.'

7. 'Behind every cloud is another cloud.'

8. 'I can live without money, but I cannot live without love.'

11. 'It's lonely and cold on the top... lonely and cold.'

12. 'I've always taken 'The Wizard of Oz' very seriously, you know. I believe in the idea of the rainbow. And I've spent my entire life trying to get over it.'
