Marilyn Monroe
I don't want to play sex roles any more. I'm tired of being known as the girl with the shape.
Marilyn Monroe
If a star or studio chief or any other great movie personages find themselves sitting among a lot of nobodies, they get frightened - as if somebody was trying to demote them.
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 am trying to find myself. Sometimes that's not easy.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame is like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have it at every meal.
