More quotes by Ali MacGraw
There are so many kinds of love, and they're all very intense for me.
Ali MacGraw
The quality of my life has changed dramatically - not the events - but the way I handle them and my priorities and my sense of drama.
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.'
Ali MacGraw
I'm learning how to live in the present and be grateful for what's working rather than look for the 'what's not working' piece.
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
I want to be a person who makes a quiet difference.
Ali MacGraw
There's so much craziness that comes along with being a movie star that you can get so confused. Unless you've spent your whole life waiting to be the centre of attention, it's pretty terrifying.
Ali MacGraw
Here's what I had: I had the arrogance of saying I'd like to be in a 'good' movie, so in fact, when I was hot, I turned down a lot of stuff because I didn't think I wanted to watch it.
Ali MacGraw
Every one of us gets to find our way, hopefully surrounded by love, but we still have to pick out our own way through the land mines of life. By accepting this and relinquishing control, there's just extraordinary beauty.
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
Looking at beautiful things is what makes me the happiest.
Ali MacGraw
I don't enjoy other people's dramas, and I don't enjoy mine.
Ali MacGraw
I'm much more famous than I am rich, but I'm able to scale back my lifestyle. I know a lot of people who were where I was who can't imagine living any simpler, but I haven't got a lot of expensive wants.
Ali MacGraw
People tell me that I am well-grounded. I am sane in the New England sense of the word.
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
Am I going to be able to be the person I want to be in this relationship?
Ali MacGraw
I had no real experience studying acting I came to it having done other things for a living for many, many years, and I have this gigantic respect for experience and technique.
Ali MacGraw
I'm in total awe of the technique of great film people. Because if you get your emotional life up to perfection by miracle on Take One, you better have a technique to keep doing it again and again and again.
Ali MacGraw
If you want to be watched 24 hours a day in everything you do, you can't turn that around. You can't wake up three years later and say, 'Stop bothering me, I'm a serious actor,' if all you've done is wear certain clothes and show up half-loaded at clubs.
