Letting people get close to you is always a risk. Though I have learned to be careful, I am unwilling to shut myself off completely.”
― Priscilla Beaulieu Presley, Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis

“There comes a time when a performer should step down, retire or rest... We prefer remembering you at your peak, rather than at your funeral.”
― Priscilla Beaulieu Presley, Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis
