A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left.

More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
I'm so many people. They shock me sometimes. I wish I was just me! I used to think I was going crazy, until I discovered that some people I admired were like that to.
Marilyn Monroe
Suicide, is a persons privilege. I don't believe it's a sin or a crime it's your right if you do. Though it doesn't get you anywhere.
Marilyn Monroe
I've always felt toward the slightest scene, even if all I had to do in a scene was just to come in and say, 'Hi,' that the people ought to get their money's worth and that this is an obligation of mine, to give them the best you can get from me.
Marilyn Monroe
Looking back, I guess I used to play-act all the time. For one thing, it meant I could live in a more interesting world than the one around me.
Marilyn Monroe
The fact is that I find more most men are more open, more generous, and much more stimulating than the majority of females I know.
Marilyn Monroe
I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated.
Marilyn Monroe
I guess I have always been deeply terrified to really be someone's wife since I know from life one cannot love another, ever, really.
Marilyn Monroe
The happiest time of my life is now.
Marilyn Monroe
Just because you've failed once, it doesn't mean you're going to fail at everything.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm pretty, but not beautiful. I sin, but I'm not the devil. I'm good, but I'm not an angel.
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
Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame is like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have it at every meal.
Marilyn Monroe
There is a need for aloneness, which I don't think most people realise for an actor. It's almost having certain kinds of secrets for yourself that you'll let the whole world in on only for a moment, when you're acting. But everybody is always tugging at you. They'd all like sort of a chunk of you.
Marilyn Monroe
People always ask me if I believe diamonds are a girl's best friend. Frankly, I don't.
Marilyn Monroe
In Hollywood a girl's virtue is much less important than her hairdo. You're judged by how you look, not by what you are. Hollywood's a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for kiss, and fifty cents for your soul. I know, because I turned down the first offer often enough and held out for the fifty.
Marilyn Monroe
I won't be satisfied until people want to hear me sing without looking at me. Of course, that doesn't mean I want them to stop looking.
Marilyn Monroe
It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone - so far.
Marilyn Monroe
Next to my husband and along with Marlon Brando, Yves Montand is the most attractive man I've ever met.
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
