Shirley MacLaine
You have to surrender to the energy above and below.
Shirley MacLaine
On things she had to pack before leaving her home in advance of a forest fire, 1996. Childhood pictures and pictures of my life. Do you know how many pictures that is? Not just this life I have pictures from 13,000 lives.
Shirley MacLaine
I love the idea that I'm the oldest one in the room because I can get away with anything!
Shirley MacLaine
You have to be talentedly insecure in order to be a good actress. And then it's the director's job to make you more miserable and get a good take.
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
