More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
There was my name up in lights. I said, 'God, somebody's made a mistake.' But there it was, in lights. And I sat there and said, 'Remember, you're not a star.' Yet there it was up in lights.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm for the individual as opposed to the corporation. The way it is the individual is the underdog, and with all the things a corporation has going for them the individual comes out banged on her head. The artist is nothing. It's really tragic.
Marilyn Monroe
Marriage destroyed my relationship with two wonderful men.

Marilyn Monroe
It's better to be angry without paying for gold than to be angry after you paid.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm trying to find myself. Sometimes it's not that easy.

I’m the type of person that tries to fall back asleep in the morning just to finish a dream.
Marilyn Monroe
Enjoy the fact that you're a woman and men will enjoy it too.
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 always have a full-length mirror next to the camera when I'm doing publicity stills. That way, I know how I look.
Marilyn Monroe
The truth can only be recalled, never invented.
Marilyn Monroe
