More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
There was my name up in lights. I said, 'God, somebody's made a mistake.' But there it was, in lights. And I sat there and said, 'Remember, you're not a star.' Yet there it was up in lights.
Marilyn Monroe
You know, most people really don't know me.
Marilyn Monroe
It’s easier to look sexy when you’re thinking of one man in particular.
Marilyn Monroe
I think every human being knows how to hate. Because if they didn't know how to hate how to hate they wouldn't know how to love.
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
I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it.
Marilyn Monroe
I am trying to find myself. Sometimes that's not easy.
Marilyn Monroe
There is just no comparison between having a dinner date with a man and staying home playing canasta with the girls.
Marilyn Monroe
There is a need for aloneness, which I don't think most people realise for an actor. It's almost having certain kinds of secrets for yourself that you'll let the whole world in on only for a moment, when you're acting. But everybody is always tugging at you. They'd all like sort of a chunk of you.
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
Confidentially, the type of male I find most enjoyable for a friend is one who has enough fire and assurance to speak up for his convictions.
Marilyn Monroe
If you spend your life competing with business men, what do you have? A bank account and ulcers!
Marilyn Monroe
I want to grow old without facelifts. I want to have the courage to be loyal to the face I have made.
Marilyn Monroe
I had to use my wits or else I'd have been sunk - and nothings going to sink me. Everyone was always pulling at me, tugging at me, as if they wanted a piece of me. It was always, 'do this, do that,' and not just on the job but off, too. God, I've tried to stay intact, whole.
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.
Marilyn Monroe
Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty? You wouldn't marry a girl just because she's pretty, but my goodness, doesn't it help?
Marilyn Monroe
A girl does not need anyone who does not need her.
Marilyn Monroe
I've always felt toward the slightest scene, even if all I had to do in a scene was just to come in and say, 'Hi,' that the people ought to get their money's worth and that this is an obligation of mine, to give them the best you can get from me.
Marilyn Monroe
try to enjoy myself when I can - I'll be miserable enough as it is.
Marilyn Monroe
Don't stop when you're tired stop when you're done.
Marilyn Monroe
