Quotes
ADD QUOTES-

Priscilla (on a set of bongo drums that can be found in the new Elvis exhibit): My dad gave me 35 dollars to go find a gift for him and I found these bongo drums; he actually kept them and he used them.
-
Priscilla: (on being a grandmother again) I'm ecstatic. It's going to be nice to have a little one running around again. Just being around, just the energy.

-
Priscilla: I have a terrible time giving interviews, it's so much more a sensitive issue for me because I am so protective of Lisa Marie and of her father.
-
Priscilla: (on Elvis) Elvis brought out this mothering quality. I cut his meat up for him. I tasted it before he ever had it. I would fix his deviled eggs, cut off the top, put his butter in, prepare all his food as a mother would for a child.
