A sex-symbol becomes a thing, I just hate being a thing. But if I'm going to be a symbol of something I'd rather have it sex than some other things we've got symbols of.

More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
Most men judge your importance in their lives by how much you can hurt them.
Marilyn Monroe
I feel that beauty and femininity are ageless
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
The one thing a person wants in life is usually something basic that money can't buy.
Marilyn Monroe
All my stepchildren carried the burden of my fame. Sometimes they would read terrible things about me, and I'd worry about whether it would hurt them. I would tell them: 'Don't hide these things from me. I'd rather you ask me these things straight out, and I'll answer all your questions.'
Marilyn Monroe
The studio people want me to do Good-bye Charlie for the movies, but I'm not going to do it. I don't like the idea of playing a man in a woman's body - you know? It just doesn't seem feminine.
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
Jewish men don't know anything.
Marilyn Monroe
For a long time I was scared I'd find out I was like my mother.
Marilyn Monroe
The truth can only be recalled, never invented.
Marilyn Monroe
Friends accept you the way you are.
Marilyn Monroe
Just because you've failed once, it doesn't mean you're going to fail at everything.
Marilyn Monroe
The first effect marriage had on me was to increase my lack of interest in sex.... Actually our marriage was a sort of friendship with sexual privileges.
Marilyn Monroe
We should all start to live before we get too old.
Marilyn Monroe
Dreaming about being an actress, is more exciting then being one.
Marilyn Monroe
You know, most people really don't know me.
Marilyn Monroe
The real lover is the man who can thrill you just by touching your head or smiling into your eyes - or just by staring into space.
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
Nothing's ever easy as long as you go on living.
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.
