Marilyn Monroe
Being a sex symbol is a heavy load to carry, especially when one is tired, hurt and bewildered.

A career is a wonderful thing, but you can't snuggle up to it at night.
Marilyn Monroe
If a man doesn't want you at your worst, then he sure as hell doesn't deserve you at your best.
Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe
I think to love bravely is the best and accept - as much as one can bear.
