Marilyn Monroe
The thing I want more than anything else? I want to have children. I used to feel for every child I had, I would adopt another.
Marilyn Monroe
You know, most people really don't know me.
Marilyn Monroe
It's nice to be included in people's fantasies but you also like to be accepted for your own sake.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame doesn't fulfill you. It warms you a bit, but that warmth is temporary.
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
The public doesn't mind people living together without being married, providing they don't overdo it.
Marilyn Monroe
The chief drawback with men is that they are too talkative.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm going to be a great movie star some day.
Marilyn Monroe
