More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
I had to use my wits or else I'd have been sunk - and nothings going to sink me. Everyone was always pulling at me, tugging at me, as if they wanted a piece of me. It was always, 'do this, do that,' and not just on the job but off, too. God, I've tried to stay intact, whole.
Marilyn Monroe
Of course, it does depend on the people, but sometimes I'm invited places to kind of brighten up a dinner table like a musician who'll play the piano after dinner, and I know you're not really invited for yourself. You're just an ornament.
Marilyn Monroe
I read poetry to save time.
Marilyn Monroe
The outside world wants me to have glamour my fans want me glamorous. I won't let them down.
Marilyn Monroe
Just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them.
Marilyn Monroe
I have always felt comfortable in blue jeans. I have found it interesting, however, that people also whistle at blue jeans. I have to admit that I like mine to fit. There's nothing I hate worse than baggy blue jeans.
Marilyn Monroe
Maybe I’ll never be able to do what I hope to, but at least I have hope.
Marilyn Monroe
There isn't anybody that looks like me without clothes on.
Marilyn Monroe
The real lover is the man who can thrill you just by touching your head or smiling into your eyes - or just by staring into space.
Marilyn Monroe
That's the way you feel when you're beaten inside. You don't feel angry at those who've beaten you. You just feel ashamed.
Marilyn Monroe
Who does she think she is, Marilyn Monroe?
Marilyn Monroe
The truth can only be recalled, never invented.
Marilyn Monroe
Love is something you cant invent, no matter how much you want to.
Marilyn Monroe
In Rockford I decided that I had seen enough of the world.
Marilyn Monroe
Suicide, is a persons privilege. I don't believe it's a sin or a crime it's your right if you do. Though it doesn't get you anywhere.
Marilyn Monroe
I do sin, but I am not the devil.
Marilyn Monroe
I always felt I was a nobody, and the only way for me to be somebody was to be - well, somebody else. Which is probably why I wanted to act.
Marilyn Monroe
I was never used to being happy, so that wasn't something I ever took for granted.
Marilyn Monroe
I have noticed... that men usually leave married women alone and are inclined to treat all wives with respect. This is no great credit to married women.
Marilyn Monroe
I remember when I was in high school I didn't have a new dress for each special occasion. The girls would bring the fact to my attention, not always too delicately. The boys, however, never bothered with the subject. They were my friends, not because of the size of my wardrobe but because they liked me.
