More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
Speaking of Oscars, I would win overwhelmingly if the Academy gave an Oscar for faking orgasms. I have done some of my best acting convincing my partners I was in the throes of ecstasy.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm going to be a great movie star some day.
Marilyn Monroe
The 'public' scares me, but people I trust.
Marilyn Monroe
People always ask me if I believe diamonds are a girl's best friend. Frankly, I don't.
Marilyn Monroe
Friends accept you the way you are.
Marilyn Monroe
Sometimes I've been to a party where no one spoke to me for a whole evening. The men, frightened by their wives or sweeties, would give me a wide berth. And the ladies would gang up in a corner to discuss my dangerous character.
Marilyn Monroe
Who does she think she is, Marilyn Monroe?
Marilyn Monroe
A woman knows by intuition, or instinct, what is best for herself.
Marilyn Monroe
There's only one sort of natural blonde on earth - albinos.
Marilyn Monroe
Never regret anything because at one time it was exactly what you wanted.
Marilyn Monroe
Promises are worse than lies. You don't just make them believe, you also make them hope.
Marilyn Monroe
I think every human being knows how to hate. Because if they didn't know how to hate how to hate they wouldn't know how to love.
Marilyn Monroe
Being a sex symbol is a heavy load to carry, especially when one is tired, hurt and bewildered.
Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe
The happiest time of my life is now.
Marilyn Monroe
My illusions didn't have anything to do with being a fine actress. I knew how third rate I was. I could actually feel my lack of talent, as if it were cheap clothes I was wearing inside. But, my God, how I wanted to learn, to change, to improve!
Marilyn Monroe
In spite of everything life is not without hope.
Marilyn Monroe
I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am pretty, but not beautiful. I have friends, but I am not the peacemaker.
Marilyn Monroe
I think to love bravely is the best and accept - as much as one can bear.
Marilyn Monroe
Squeezing yourself to ooze out the last ounce of sex allure is terribly hard. I'd like to do roles like Julie in Bury the Dead, Gretchen in Faust and Teresa in Cradle Song.
