Ali MacGraw
There are so many kinds of love, and they're all very intense for me.
Ali MacGraw
I'm a New Yorker, and working in New York was divine for me. I loved working there and going to work there, which I've been able to do three or four times in my career, and I just love it. It's my favorite.

I think that I was lucky that I was 30 when I did 'Love Story', which came with this extravagant pop celebrity. I had already done 15 years of what I call 'real' work.'

Ali MacGraw
I think something will soon have to be done to protect people from hacking and blogging and lying and spreading rumors and chasing you down the street. Lives are wrecked that way.
Ali MacGraw
Modeling was so fleeting it doesn't count in my life scheme.

I can't remember when I wasn't an animal rights activist.
Ali MacGraw
I was really involved with other people's opinions of me, and it got heightened during my film career. I don't have any opinion, good or bad about it, it just was. It's not the way I feel now, and I think yoga has a lot to do with that.
Ali MacGraw
You know, the fashion business is this legendary repository of young girls on their way to getting husbands. I really wanted to work.
Ali MacGraw
I think we live in a time where people are just insane on the subject of how they look.
Ali MacGraw
It's been my experience that the longer I do yoga, the more I want to know, the more I am able to understand and the less judgmental I am.
Ali MacGraw
I had a romantic, 'Aren't I a good girl?' take on divorce, but the truth is that was stupid.
Ali MacGraw
If you're a baby about the media, as I was, you can't imagine what it's like when the great approval machine shines its beam on you, when every time you cross the street someone comes out of a manhole to talk about your haircut.
Ali MacGraw
In film, there's so many little things where not just the actor can blow his lines, but technically, it doesn't quite come off in the perfect way envisioned.
Ali MacGraw
When one stops working at the height of one's career, it's just stupid not to say, 'I want to make sure I have a house.'
