More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
I am not a victim of emotional conflicts. I am human.
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
I think that sexuality is only attractive when it's natural and spontaneous.
Marilyn Monroe
I used to think as I looked out on the Hollywood night, 'There must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me dreaming of being a movie star.' But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest.
Marilyn Monroe
If fame goes by, so long, I've had you, fame. If it goes by, I've always known it was fickle. So at least it's something I experience, but that's not where I live.
Marilyn Monroe
Sex is a part of nature. I go along with nature.
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
Fame doesn't fulfill you. It warms you a bit, but that warmth is temporary.
Marilyn Monroe
There is a need for aloneness, which I don't think most people realise for an actor. It's almost having certain kinds of secrets for yourself that you'll let the whole world in on only for a moment, when you're acting. But everybody is always tugging at you. They'd all like sort of a chunk of you.
Marilyn Monroe
Always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie?
Marilyn Monroe
There isn't anybody that looks like me without clothes on.
Marilyn Monroe
If there is only one thing in my life that I am proud of, it's that I've never been a kept woman.
Marilyn Monroe
I love a natural look in pictures. I like people with a feeling one way or another - it shows an inner life. I like to see that there’s something going on inside them.
Marilyn Monroe
In Hollywood a girl's virtue is much less important than her hairdo.
Marilyn Monroe
I’m the type of person that tries to fall back asleep in the morning just to finish a dream.
Marilyn Monroe
My work is the only ground I've ever had to stand on.
Marilyn Monroe
That's the story of my life I always get the fuzzy end of the lollipop.
Marilyn Monroe
A woman knows by intuition, or instinct, what is best for herself.
Marilyn Monroe
The sky is not the limit. Your mind is
Marilyn Monroe
I've never liked the name Marilyn. I've often wished that I had held out that day for Jean Monroe. But I guess it's too late to do anything about it now.
Marilyn Monroe
