More quotes by Shirley Temple
I'm not too proud of the movies I made as a grownup except for 'That Hagen Girl', which nobody remembers but which gave me a chance to act.
Shirley Temple
Time is money. Wasted time means wasted money means trouble.
Shirley Temple
Won't the new 'Suggested for Mature Audience' protect our youngsters from such films? I don't believe so. I know many forty-five-year old men with the mentalities of six-year-olds, and my feeling is that they should not see such pictures, either.
Shirley Temple
If you hear someone scream, you shouldn't close the drapes. You should help. You've got to try.
Shirley Temple

Shirley Temple
I wanted to be in the FBI. I also wanted to be a pie salesman. It was so intense that the studio got the prop department to make a little pie wagon and they filled it with tarts. I wheeled it around the set and sold them to the crew. I was about eight years old. I always sold out and I didn't have to pay for them. It was a great deal.
Shirley Temple
One famous movie executive who shall remain nameless, exposed himself to me in his office. 'Mr X,' I said, 'I thought you were a producer not an exhibitor'.
Shirley Temple
Sunnybrook Farm is now a parking lot the petticoats are in the garbage can, where they belong in the modern world and I detest censorship.
Shirley Temple
I liked work shoes and big, working-class hands. The stars would come and go, but the crew on my movies was my extended family.
Shirley Temple
We would have to invent the U.N if we did not have it which is not an original thought.
Shirley Temple
Be brave and clear. Follow your heart and don't be overly influenced by outside factors. Be true to yourself.
