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
I have never been able to wear pajamas or creepy nightgowns they disturb my sleep.
Marilyn Monroe
Some of my foster families used to send me to the movies to get me out of the house and there I'd sit all day and way into the night. Up in front, there with the screen so big, a little kid all alone, and I loved it. I loved anything that moved up there and I didn't miss anything that happened and there was no popcorn either.
Marilyn Monroe
They will only care when you're gone.
Marilyn Monroe
I've often stood silent at a party for hours listening to my movie idols turn into dull and little people.
Marilyn Monroe
try to enjoy myself when I can - I'll be miserable enough as it is.
Marilyn Monroe
