More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
I enjoy acting when you really hit it right. And I guess I've always had too much fantasy to be only a housewife.
Marilyn Monroe
I think I have always had a little humor.
Marilyn Monroe
I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated.
Marilyn Monroe
I think to love bravely is the best and accept - as much as one can bear.
Marilyn Monroe
Speaking of Oscars, I would win overwhelmingly if the Academy gave an Oscar for faking orgasms. I have done some of my best acting convincing my partners I was in the throes of ecstasy.
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
An actor is supposed to be a sensitive instrument. Isaac Stern takes good care of his violin. What if everybody jumped on his violin?
Marilyn Monroe
Sex is nature, and I believe in going along with nature.
Marilyn Monroe
I never wanted to be Marilyn - it just happened. Marilyn's like a veil I wear over Norma Jeane.
Marilyn Monroe
Of course, it does depend on the people, but sometimes I'm invited places to kind of brighten up a dinner table like a musician who'll play the piano after dinner, and I know you're not really invited for yourself. You're just an ornament.
Marilyn Monroe
The body is meant to be seen, not all covered up.
Marilyn Monroe
I do sin, but I am not the devil.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm personally opposed to a deep tan because I like to feel blond all over.
Marilyn Monroe
In leaving Hollywood and coming to New York, I feel I can be more myself. After all, if I can't be myself, what's the good of being anything at all?
Marilyn Monroe
People always ask me if I believe diamonds are a girl's best friend. Frankly, I don't.
Marilyn Monroe
There was my name up in lights. I said, 'God, somebody's made a mistake.' But there it was, in lights. And I sat there and said, 'Remember, you're not a star.' Yet there it was up in lights.
Marilyn Monroe
Maybe I’ll never be able to do what I hope to, but at least I have hope.
Marilyn Monroe
I love a natural look in pictures.
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 like actors very much, but to marry one would be like marrying your brother. You look too much alike in the mirror.
Marilyn Monroe
