For a long time I was scared I'd find out I was like my mother.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I've fallen in love with Brooklyn. I'm going to buy a little house in Brooklyn and live there. I'll go to the coast only when I have to make a picture.

People always ask me if I believe diamonds are a girl's best friend. Frankly, I don't.
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
Image
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.

Most men judge your importance in their lives by how much you can hurt them.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
We are all born sexual creatures,thank God, but it's a pity so many people despise and crush this natural gift.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
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.

Enjoy the fact that you're a woman and men will enjoy it too.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
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
Image
In spite of everything life is not without hope.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I never wanted to be Marilyn - it just happened. Marilyn's like a veil I wear over Norma Jeane.

Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union, they insist, there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which, in my book, is a good definition for friendship.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
A strong man doesn't have to be dominant toward a woman. He doesn't match his strength against a woman weak with love for him. He matches it against the world.

It stirs up envy, fame does.
