More quotes by Shirley MacLaine
I don't do like diva trips and stuff.
Shirley MacLaine
I'm very aware, but I'm very naïve. When you are really naïve and expecting safety and expecting the best, you don't feel you're taking risks. You can get smacked a little, but usually it works out pretty well. I would say that, as much as you can instill your open-minded naivety, if you're basically open minded, then you can do damn near anything.
Shirley MacLaine
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.
Shirley MacLaine
Crystals amplify the consciousness.
Shirley MacLaine
People think I'm nuts.
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
I loved the idea of doing a love story with people over the age of 60 and a film that will hopefully give so many of the audience a chance to see themselves on the screen.
Shirley MacLaine
The mob taught me how to play gin rummy.
Shirley MacLaine
It's a big deal for me to say I'm over politics.
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
There are stars who are proficiently paranoid enough to hide what they really think. I can't.
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
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
I had a video made of my recent knee operation. The doctor said it was the best movie I ever starred in.
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
If I had a party to attend and didn't want to be there, I would play the part of someone who was having a lovely time.
Shirley MacLaine
We are not victims of the world we see, we are victims of the way we see the world.
Shirley MacLaine
My mother was Canadian, so you never knew what she was thinking.
Shirley MacLaine
Melt their weapons, melt their hearts, melt their anger with love.
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.
