More quotes by Shirley MacLaine
The comedy of class, played so straight, is a wonderful thing for an actor to sink their teeth into.
Shirley MacLaine

Shirley MacLaine
Women love working together. That's my experience anyway.
Shirley MacLaine
My mother was Canadian, so you never knew what she was thinking.

Shirley MacLaine
I think male actors get confused by their own vanity.
Shirley MacLaine

Sex is hardly ever just about sex.
Shirley MacLaine

Shirley MacLaine
Nothing should be permanent except struggle with the dark side within ourselves.
Shirley MacLaine

Shirley MacLaine
Of course, we're all a mass of contradictions.
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
Never trust a man when he's in love, drunk, or running for office.
Shirley MacLaine
One can become as intellectually arrogant about spirituality as about empirical science.
Shirley MacLaine
The more sex becomes a non-issue in people's lives, the happier they are.
Shirley MacLaine
I have never seen myself as leading for others. What's important is that I know who I am. Not completely. But I'm coming around third base.
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
I'm not sure I'll come back to this planet. I may come back to another one.
