More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
I remember when I was in high school I didn't have a new dress for each special occasion. The girls would bring the fact to my attention, not always too delicately. The boys, however, never bothered with the subject. They were my friends, not because of the size of my wardrobe but because they liked me.
Marilyn Monroe
That's the way you feel when you're beaten inside. You don't feel angry at those who've beaten you. You just feel ashamed.
Marilyn Monroe
People had a habit of looking at me as if I were some kind of mirror instead of a person. They didn't see me, they saw their own lewd thoughts, then they white-masked themselves by calling me the lewd one.
Marilyn Monroe
Don't stop when you're tired stop when you're done.
Marilyn Monroe
The public doesn't mind people living together without being married, providing they don't overdo it.
Marilyn Monroe
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
I was never used to being happy, so that wasn't something I ever took for granted.
Marilyn Monroe
What good am I? I can't have kids. I can't cook. I've been divorced three times. Who would want me?
Marilyn Monroe
I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated.
Marilyn Monroe
I live to succeed, not to please you or anyone else.
Marilyn Monroe
No sex is wrong, if there's love in it.
Marilyn Monroe
A woman knows by intuition, or instinct, what is best for herself.
Marilyn Monroe
If there is only one thing in my life that I am proud of, it's that I've never been a kept woman.
Marilyn Monroe
Marriage destroyed my relationship with two wonderful men.
Marilyn Monroe
Who does she think she is, Marilyn Monroe?
Marilyn Monroe
When I was a youngster I lived with different families. I nearly always felt closer to the man of the house. Maybe because I always dreamed of having a father of my own.
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
Girdles and wire stays should have never been invented. No man wants to hug a padded bird cage.
Marilyn Monroe
I am alone I am always alone no matter what.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm trying to find myself as a person, sometimes that's not easy to do. Millions of people live their entire lives without finding themselves. But it is something I must do. The best way for me to find myself as a person is to prove to myself that I am an actress.
Marilyn Monroe
