More quotes by Shirley MacLaine

Shirley MacLaine
Nothing should be permanent except struggle with the dark side within ourselves.
Shirley MacLaine
Someday perhaps change will occur when times are ready for it instead of always when it is too late. Someday change will be accepted as life itself.
Shirley MacLaine
He [Jimmy Carter] says his lust is in his heart. I hope it's a little lower.
