I'm an expert in hookers. I'm an expert in doormats. I'm an expert in victims. They were the best parts. And when I woke up--sociologically, politically, and creatively--I could no longer take those parts and look in the mirror.

More quotes by 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
My mother was Canadian, so you never knew what she was thinking.
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
Sex is hardly ever just about sex.
Shirley MacLaine
I think in the end we all know that our best friend is ourselves. We are born alone and we die alone. That's the journey.
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
I have a lot of friends who are around. I'm having a wonderful time in my life now with my platonic relationships with men and women, because when that sexual tension is off the requirement of the interplay, then you get to who the people really are, and to yourself.
Shirley MacLaine
I've gotten crankier in my old age.
Shirley MacLaine
I have a great life, to tell you the truth.
Shirley MacLaine
I believe in UFOs, I believe in extraterrestrials, and I believe in angels. And maybe they'll protect all of us.
Shirley MacLaine
It's a big deal for me to say I'm over politics.
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
Things are done according to money these days.
Shirley MacLaine
Why do people have to love people anyway?
Shirley MacLaine
I've been through so much of my own self-search that I'm not as consumed with who I am as I used to be.
Shirley MacLaine
no one ever really leaves Hollywood. No one really leaves unless they are called away by God. Even then, the impulse would be to come back again and make a movie about the experience.
Shirley MacLaine
Never trust a man when he's in love, drunk, or running for office.
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'm an artist, therefore I think I am sensitive to human pain.
Shirley MacLaine
Of course, we're all a mass of contradictions.
