More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
I don't forgive people because I'm weak, I forgive them because I am strong enough to know people make mistakes.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm trying to find myself as a person, sometimes that's not easy to do. Millions of people live their entire lives without finding themselves. But it is something I must do. The best way for me to find myself as a person is to prove to myself that I am an actress.
Marilyn Monroe
A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night.
Marilyn Monroe
Don't stop when you're tired stop when you're done.
Marilyn Monroe
The truth can only be recalled, never invented.
Marilyn Monroe
I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it.
Marilyn Monroe
Only parts of us will ever touch only parts of others.
Marilyn Monroe
When Clark Gable died, I cried for 2 days straight. I couldn't eat or sleep.
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
For life: it is rather a determination not to be overwhelmed. For work: the truth can only be recalled, never invented.
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
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.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm thirty-six years old. I'm just getting started!
Marilyn Monroe
It's better to be angry without paying for gold than to be angry after you paid.
Marilyn Monroe
Next to my husband and along with Marlon Brando, Yves Montand is the most attractive man I've ever met.
Marilyn Monroe
I always felt I was a nobody, and the only way for me to be somebody was to be - well, somebody else. Which is probably why I wanted to act.
Marilyn Monroe
That's the story of my life I always get the fuzzy end of the lollipop.
Marilyn Monroe
An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine.
Marilyn Monroe
You know, most people really don't know me.
Marilyn Monroe
I don't want to make money, I just want to be wonderful.
Marilyn Monroe
