More quotes by 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
The mob taught me how to play gin rummy.
Shirley MacLaine
I think the world is in the mess it's in because we are spiritually ignorant.
Shirley MacLaine
Prayer is speaking to God. Meditation is listening to God. Trust tranquility.
Shirley MacLaine
The more sex becomes a non-issue in people's lives, the happier they are.
Shirley MacLaine
For if the talent or individuality is there, it should be expressed. If it doesn't find its way out into the air, it can be turned inward and gnaw like the fox at the Spartan boy's belly.
Shirley MacLaine
I think people will become more and more aware that we are all more than we seem.
Shirley MacLaine
The comedy of class, played so straight, is a wonderful thing for an actor to sink their teeth into.
Shirley MacLaine
...One individual is his or her own best teacher, and no other idol or false image should be worshiped or adored because the God we are all seeking lies inside oneself, not outside.
Shirley MacLaine
You know, I have never had a casting couch proposition in my life. I thought there was something wrong with me.
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
All you really need in life is some fresh water, a good hat, and a really good pair of shoes.
Shirley MacLaine
Audrey was the kind of person who when she saw someone else suffering tried to take their pain on herself. She was a healer. She knew how to love. You didn't have to be in constant contact with her to feel you had a friend. We always picked up right where we left off.
Shirley MacLaine
People think I'm nuts.
Shirley MacLaine
I've been through so much of my own self-search that I'm not as consumed with who I am as I used to be.
Shirley MacLaine
Crystals are amplifying minerals. You have a crystal in a radio - it amplifies the sound waves. You have a crystal in a television set - it amplifies the light waves. When you hold crystals, they amplify thought waves.
Shirley MacLaine
Dwelling on the negative simply contributes to its power.
Shirley MacLaine
Melt their weapons, melt their hearts, melt their anger with love.
Shirley MacLaine
An actor has many lives and many people within him. I know there are lots of people inside me. No one ever said I'm dull.
Shirley MacLaine
You can't take a crash course in serenity.
Shirley MacLaine
