I never wanted to be Marilyn - it just happened. Marilyn's like a veil I wear over Norma Jeane.

More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
Jewish men don't know anything.
Marilyn Monroe
I've often stood silent at a party for hours listening to my movie idols turn into dull and little people.
Marilyn Monroe
In leaving Hollywood and coming to New York, I feel I can be more myself. After all, if I can't be myself, what's the good of being anything at all?
Marilyn Monroe
There are no women who do not like perfume, there are women who have not found their scent.
Marilyn Monroe
What good am I? I can't have kids. I can't cook. I've been divorced three times. Who would want me?
Marilyn Monroe
Creativity has got to start with humanity.
Marilyn Monroe
Do not worry, and worry.
Marilyn Monroe
By nature, I suppose I have a languorous disposition
Marilyn Monroe
I think to love bravely is the best and accept - as much as one can bear.
Marilyn Monroe
It stirs up envy, fame does.
Marilyn Monroe
No sex is wrong, if there's love in it.
Marilyn Monroe
In Hollywood a girl's virtue is much less important than her hairdo. You're judged by how you look, not by what you are. Hollywood's a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for kiss, and fifty cents for your soul. I know, because I turned down the first offer often enough and held out for the fifty.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame to me certainly is only a temporary and a partial happiness ... fame is not really for a daily diet, that's not what fulfills you. It warms you a bit but the warming is temporary. It's like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have to have it every meal and every day.
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
Only parts of us will ever touch only parts of others.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame is like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have it at every meal.
Marilyn Monroe
Nearly everyone I knew talked to me about God. They always warned me not to offend Him.
Marilyn Monroe
A friend tells you what you want to heara best friend tells you the truth.
Marilyn Monroe
I used to say to myself, 'What the devil have you got to be proud about, Marilyn Monroe?' And I'd answer, 'Everything, everything,' and I'd walk slowly and turn my head slowly as if I were a queen.
Marilyn Monroe
When Clark Gable died, I cried for 2 days straight. I couldn't eat or sleep.
Marilyn Monroe
