More quotes by Shirley MacLaine
The pickings are pretty slim when you have to play the part of a housewife who doesn't go out of her apartment because she's afraid she's going to get mugged, or a woman who turns into her brother, who is a murderer.
Shirley MacLaine
I don't do like diva trips and stuff.
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
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
We've had so many lifetimes of different cultures and different religions and different points of view and different wars and different loves and different children.
Shirley MacLaine
On the stage you try to act real. On the screen you try to be real.
Shirley MacLaine
Women love working together. That's my experience anyway.
Shirley MacLaine
God bless that potential that we all have for making anything possible if we think we deserve it. I deserve this.
Shirley MacLaine

Shirley MacLaine
Melt their weapons, melt their hearts, melt their anger with love.
Shirley MacLaine
Why do people have to love people anyway?
Shirley MacLaine
I'm not sure I'll come back to this planet. I may come back to another one.
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
To release others from the expectations we have of them is to really love them.
Shirley MacLaine
Never trust a man when he's in love, drunk, or running for office.
Shirley MacLaine
There's no journey worth taking except the journey through one's self. That's the most important journey you take. I found that out as I went around the world many times: I was learning about me.
Shirley MacLaine
Someday perhaps change will occur when times are ready for it instead of always when it is too late. Someday change will be accepted as life itself.
Shirley MacLaine
I look like a real bag lady when I go to Starbucks with my dog and get my chai.
Shirley MacLaine
I think in the end we all know that our best friend is ourselves. We are born alone and we die alone. That's the journey.
Shirley MacLaine
