More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
In spite of everything life is not without hope.
Marilyn Monroe
Someone said to me, 'If fifty percent of the experts in Hollywood said you had no talent and should give up, what would you do?' My answer was then and still is, 'If a hundred percent told me that, all one hundred percent would be wrong.'
Marilyn Monroe
The only thing a star asks is to be allowed to twinkle.
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
I don't think sun-tanned skin is any more attractive than white skin, or any healthier, for that matter
Marilyn Monroe
Fame is like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have it at every meal.
Marilyn Monroe
An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine.
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
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 think I have always had a little humor.
Marilyn Monroe
Suicide, is a persons privilege. I don't believe it's a sin or a crime it's your right if you do. Though it doesn't get you anywhere.
Marilyn Monroe
One of the best things that ever happened to me is that I'm a woman. That is the way all females should feel.
Marilyn Monroe
Acting became more than a profession to me. It became a sort of religion.
Marilyn Monroe
I have never been able to wear pajamas or creepy nightgowns they disturb my sleep.
Marilyn Monroe
Creativity has got to start with humanity.
Marilyn Monroe
Wouldnt it be nice to be like men and get notches in your belt... and not get emotionally involved?
Marilyn Monroe
Being a sex symbol is a heavy load to carry, especially when one is tired, hurt and bewildered.
Marilyn Monroe
Do people ever get over being shy? I think it’s with you for life-like the color of your eyes.
Marilyn Monroe
My work is the only ground I've ever had to stand on.
Marilyn Monroe
I often wake up in the night, and I like to have something to think about.
Marilyn Monroe
