More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
It's better for the whole world to know you, even as a sex star, than never to be known at all.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm so many people. They shock me sometimes. I wish I was just me! I used to think I was going crazy, until I discovered that some people I admired were like that to.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm thirty-six years old. I'm just getting started!
Marilyn Monroe
I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated.
Marilyn Monroe
I enjoy acting when you really hit it right. And I guess I've always had too much fantasy to be only a housewife.
Marilyn Monroe
Happiness never becomes a habit.
Marilyn Monroe
Nights are not just for sleep.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame has a special burden, which I might as well state here and now. I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and sexual. But what goes with it can be a burden
Marilyn Monroe
Everybody is always tugging at you. They'd all like a sort of chunk out of you. I don' think they realize it, but it's like 'grrr do this, grr do that' But you do want to stay intact-intact and on two feet.
Marilyn Monroe
I read poetry to save time.
Marilyn Monroe
When I was a youngster I lived with different families. I nearly always felt closer to the man of the house. Maybe because I always dreamed of having a father of my own.
Marilyn Monroe
A strong man doesn't have to be dominant toward a woman. He doesn't match his strength against a woman weak with love for him. He matches it against the world.
Marilyn Monroe
We human beings are strange creatures and still reserve the right to think for ourselves.
Marilyn Monroe
Only parts of us will ever touch only parts of others.
Marilyn Monroe
Nearly everyone I knew talked to me about God. They always warned me not to offend Him.
Marilyn Monroe
Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty? You wouldn't marry a girl just because she's pretty, but my goodness, doesn't it help?
Marilyn Monroe
No sex is wrong, if there's love in it.
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
I don't look at myself as a commodity, but I'm sure a lot of people have.
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
