More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
Trying to build myself up with the fact that I have done things right that were even good and have had moments that were excellent but the bad is heavier to carry around and feel have no confidence.
Marilyn Monroe
The only thing a star asks is to be allowed to twinkle.
Marilyn Monroe
But chiefly, no lies! No lies about there being a Santa Claus or about the world being full of noble and honorable people all eager to help each other and do good to each other. I'll tell her there are honor and goodness in the world, the same as there are diamonds and radium.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame to me certainly is only a temporary and a partial happiness ... fame is not really for a daily diet, that's not what fulfills you. It warms you a bit but the warming is temporary. It's like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have to have it every meal and every day.
Marilyn Monroe
Do not worry, and worry.
Marilyn Monroe
I used to think as I looked out on the Hollywood night, 'There must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me dreaming of being a movie star.' But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest.
Marilyn Monroe
I love a natural look in pictures. I like people with a feeling one way or another - it shows an inner life. I like to see that there’s something going on inside them.
Marilyn Monroe
I am alone I am always alone no matter what.
Marilyn Monroe
Being a sex symbol is a heavy load to carry, especially when one is tired, hurt and bewildered.
Marilyn Monroe
Creativity has got to start with humanity.
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
You must feel attractive to be attractive.
Marilyn Monroe
I believe in everything - a little bit.
Marilyn Monroe
Always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie?
Marilyn Monroe
Sex is nature, and I believe in going along with nature.
Marilyn Monroe
No sex is wrong, if there's love in it.
Marilyn Monroe
I read poetry to save time.
Marilyn Monroe
I am trying to find myself. Sometimes that's not easy.
Marilyn Monroe
I live to succeed, not to please you or anyone else.
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.
