More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
I used to think as I looked out on the Hollywood night, 'There must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me dreaming of being a movie star.' But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest.
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
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
Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.
Marilyn Monroe
Next to my husband and along with Marlon Brando, Yves Montand is the most attractive man I've ever met.
Marilyn Monroe
Don't stop when you're tired stop when you're done.
Marilyn Monroe
I live to succeed, not to please you or anyone else.
Marilyn Monroe
I read poetry to save time.
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
Friends accept you the way you are.
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
I don't stop when I'm tired. I only stop when I'm done.
Marilyn Monroe
I am trying to find myself. Sometimes that's not easy.
Marilyn Monroe
There isn't anybody that looks like me without clothes on.
Marilyn Monroe
The outside world wants me to have glamour my fans want me glamorous. I won't let them down.
Marilyn Monroe
Let yourself go, the pleasure of physical movement is so important. If that's a problem, you say to yourself, what is there that I am afraid of, or hiding? Maybe your libido!
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've been on a calendar, but I've never been on time.
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
My public is growing up just as I am. After all, I'm not 19 anymore and if I stick with the sex bit, who will be paying to see me when I'm 50?
Marilyn Monroe
