More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
Trying to build myself up with the fact that I have done things right that were even good and have had moments that were excellent but the bad is heavier to carry around and feel have no confidence.
Marilyn Monroe
It takes a smart brunette to play a dumb blonde.
Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe
A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night.

But square-cut or pear-shaped, These rocks don't lose their shape. Diamonds are a girl's best friend.
Marilyn Monroe
For those who are poor in happiness, each time is a first time happiness never becomes a habit.
Marilyn Monroe
If a star or studio chief or any other great movie personages find themselves sitting among a lot of nobodies, they get frightened - as if somebody was trying to demote them.
Marilyn Monroe
All my stepchildren carried the burden of my fame. Sometimes they would read terrible things about me, and I'd worry about whether it would hurt them. I would tell them: 'Don't hide these things from me. I'd rather you ask me these things straight out, and I'll answer all your questions.'
Marilyn Monroe
I'm thirty-six years old. I'm just getting started!
Marilyn Monroe
Maybe I’ll never be able to do what I hope to, but at least I have hope.
