Gloria Vanderbilt : (2) " I was born during an eclipse. I believe very much in astrology. If you were born on an eclipse it indicates your destiny is chaotic. " - Gloria Vanderbilt " When I started travelling, I would go to a city and be on television and I used to get the question, ‘Why do you work? If I were you, I’d just go and lie on a beach somewhere.’ And I’d answer, ‘Well, I wanted to make something of my life.’ " - Gloria Vanderbilt
