More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
My work is the only ground I've ever had to stand on.
Marilyn Monroe
Sometimes I think it would be easier to avoid old age, to die young, but then you'd never complete your life, would you? You'd never wholly know you.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame doesn't fulfill you. It warms you a bit, but that warmth is temporary.
Marilyn Monroe
I want to be an artist, not an erotic freak. I don’t want to be sold to the public as a celluloid aphrodisiac.
Marilyn Monroe
Marriage is the dark side of the honeymoon
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
The 'public' scares me, but people I trust.
Marilyn Monroe
An actor is supposed to be a sensitive instrument.
Marilyn Monroe
I always have a full-length mirror next to the camera when I'm doing publicity stills. That way, I know how I look.
Marilyn Monroe
I could never pretend something I didn't feel. I could never make love if I didn't love, and if I loved I could no more hide the fact than change the color of my eyes.
Marilyn Monroe
The public doesn't mind people living together without being married, providing they don't overdo it.
Marilyn Monroe
Frankly, I've never considered my own figure so exceptional until quite recently, I seldom gave it any thought at all
Marilyn Monroe
It's better to be angry without paying for gold than to be angry after you paid.
Marilyn Monroe
I think that sexuality is only attractive when it's natural and spontaneous.
Marilyn Monroe
A sex-symbol becomes a thing, I just hate being a thing. But if I'm going to be a symbol of something I'd rather have it sex than some other things we've got symbols of.
Marilyn Monroe
I don't stop when I'm tired. I only stop when I'm done.
Marilyn Monroe
Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union, they insist, there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which, in my book, is a good definition for friendship.
Marilyn Monroe
Being a sex symbol is a heavy load to carry, especially when one is tired, hurt and bewildered.
Marilyn Monroe
I am trying to find myself. Sometimes that's not easy.
Marilyn Monroe
Acting became more than a profession to me. It became a sort of religion.
Marilyn Monroe
