Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always trust yourself, because if you don't then who will??
Marilyn Monroe
A smart girl leaves before she is left.
Marilyn Monroe
I never wanted to be Marilyn - it just happened. Marilyn's like a veil I wear over Norma Jeane.
Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe
I like actors very much, but to marry one would be like marrying your brother. You look too much alike in the mirror.
Marilyn Monroe
Squeezing yourself to ooze out the last ounce of sex allure is terribly hard. I'd like to do roles like Julie in Bury the Dead, Gretchen in Faust and Teresa in Cradle Song.
Marilyn Monroe
Important people are much more interesting when they are drunk and seem much more like human beings.
Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe
I'm personally opposed to a deep tan because I like to feel blond all over.
Marilyn Monroe
If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.
Marilyn Monroe
People always ask me if I believe diamonds are a girl's best friend. Frankly, I don't.
Marilyn Monroe
If I play a stupid girl and ask a stupid question, I've got to follow it through. What am I supposed to do, look intelligent?
Marilyn Monroe
It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone - so far.
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
A strong man doesn't have to be dominant toward a woman. He doesn't match his strength against a woman weak with love for him. He matches it against the world.
