I have a great life, to tell you the truth.
Shirley MacLaine
Of course, we're all a mass of contradictions.
Shirley MacLaine
Prayer is speaking to God. Meditation is listening to God. Trust tranquility.
Shirley MacLaine
I think of life itself now as a wonderful play that I've written for myself, and so my purpose is to have the utmost fun playing my part.
Shirley MacLaine
Remember what people used to say about meditation? Now everyone is doing it.
Shirley MacLaine
The more sex becomes a non-issue in people's lives, the happier they are.
Shirley MacLaine
I was always a character actress and never a sex symbol. Even when I was the leading lady, I was a character actor.
Shirley MacLaine
Why do people have to love people anyway?
Shirley MacLaine
Hollywood always had a streak of the totalitarian in just about everything it did. The old moguls were essentially hard-fisted authoritarians who had created a system of linked dictatorships to control the creative people. We were supposed to be the children mad, tempestuous, brilliant, talented, not terribly smart children.
Shirley MacLaine
no one ever really leaves Hollywood. No one really leaves unless they are called away by God. Even then, the impulse would be to come back again and make a movie about the experience.
Shirley MacLaine
You know, I think I had my first past life recall when I was 7.
Shirley MacLaine
People think I'm nuts.
Shirley MacLaine
Movie makers now choose profit over vision.
Shirley MacLaine
I'm an expert in hookers. I'm an expert in doormats. I'm an expert in victims. They were the best parts. And when I woke up--sociologically, politically, and creatively--I could no longer take those parts and look in the mirror.
Shirley MacLaine
We humans should never forget our capacity to connect with the collective spirit of animals. Their energy is essential to our future growth.
Shirley MacLaine
There are stars who are proficiently paranoid enough to hide what they really think. I can't.
Shirley MacLaine
Ballet is the repetitive training of the body for the purpose of executing steps in traditional fashion. It is tied to and bound by the past. It is a disciplined beauty consciously preserved in the image of the old days in societies that were class-conscious and appreciative of elitist physical expertise.
Shirley MacLaine
I don't do like diva trips and stuff.
Shirley MacLaine
I have a lot of friends who are around. I'm having a wonderful time in my life now with my platonic relationships with men and women, because when that sexual tension is off the requirement of the interplay, then you get to who the people really are, and to yourself.
Shirley MacLaine
If I had a party to attend and didn't want to be there, I would play the part of someone who was having a lovely time.
Shirley MacLaine
