About dropping out of college, the actress explained: "I left there because I lost the most wonderful teacher. I didn't want to go back when she left. My parents naturally were upset, and I spent four months at home thinking what to do, then went to New York and California." "Someone once told me that success is when preparation meets with opportunity. So obviously the most important thing is to be prepared when the opportunity comes." Taylor-Young in a 1966 interview.
