Shirley MacLaine
I'd like to go to another planet, which I might live long enough to accomplish. Just get on a spaceship and go. But not the moon. I don't see any flowers there. The moon is too close. I want to go further.
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
It's not going to be about money. It's going to be about who am I, what have I done and where am I going.
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
You let the energy go wherever it wants. I have such a rich spiritual life. Most people take drugs to experience that.
Shirley MacLaine
I watched my head rolling on the floor. It landed face up and a big tear came out of one eye.
Shirley MacLaine
My first few weeks in New York were an initiation into the kingdom of guts.
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
I love the idea that I'm the oldest one in the room because I can get away with anything!
