When I was a youngster I lived with different families. I nearly always felt closer to the man of the house. Maybe because I always dreamed of having a father of my own.

More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
At twelve I looked like a girl of seventeen. My body was developed and shapely. I still wore the blue dress and the blouse the orphanage provided. They made me look like an overgrown lummox.
Marilyn Monroe
When you're famous you kind of run into human nature in a raw kind of way. It stirs up envy, fame does.
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
There are no women who do not like perfume, there are women who have not found their scent.
Marilyn Monroe
When it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them.
Marilyn Monroe
Girdles and wire stays should have never been invented. No man wants to hug a padded bird cage.
Marilyn Monroe
A girl does not need anyone who does not need her.
Marilyn Monroe
But chiefly, no lies! No lies about there being a Santa Claus or about the world being full of noble and honorable people all eager to help each other and do good to each other. I'll tell her there are honor and goodness in the world, the same as there are diamonds and radium.
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
I feel that beauty and femininity are ageless
Marilyn Monroe
There's only one sort of natural blonde on earth - albinos.
Marilyn Monroe
Enjoy the fact that you're a woman and men will enjoy it too.
Marilyn Monroe
Nights are not just for sleep.
Marilyn Monroe
I've been on a calendar, but I've never been on time.
Marilyn Monroe
Nothing's ever easy as long as you go on living.
Marilyn Monroe
I don't stop when I'm tired. I only stop when I'm done.
Marilyn Monroe
The studio people want me to do Good-bye Charlie for the movies, but I'm not going to do it. I don't like the idea of playing a man in a woman's body - you know? It just doesn't seem feminine.
Marilyn Monroe
I had to use my wits or else I'd have been sunk - and nothings going to sink me. Everyone was always pulling at me, tugging at me, as if they wanted a piece of me. It was always, 'do this, do that,' and not just on the job but off, too. God, I've tried to stay intact, whole.
Marilyn Monroe
A man makes you feel important - makes you glad you are a woman.
Marilyn Monroe
It’s easier to look sexy when you’re thinking of one man in particular.
