More quotes by 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
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
In terms of my life, I guess I want to share whatever I've learned really, which is basically one thing: know yourself, look for yourself, know what to look for, cherish it, be honest, be authentic, even if it hurts your feelings. That's not bad.
Shirley MacLaine
The comedy of class, played so straight, is a wonderful thing for an actor to sink their teeth into.
Shirley MacLaine
You can't take a crash course in serenity.

I don't do like diva trips and stuff.
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
I think we have to do something about the environment and how we are polluting the planet.
Shirley MacLaine
Sometimes people who have their lives played out in public don't feel they have the privacy to continually journey within. I did, and that's why I have longevity.
Shirley MacLaine
One can become as intellectually arrogant about spirituality as about empirical science.
Shirley MacLaine
I'm not sure I'll come back to this planet. I may come back to another one.
Shirley MacLaine
I think male actors get confused by their own vanity.
Shirley MacLaine
Of course, we're all a mass of contradictions.
Shirley MacLaine
