More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
By nature, I suppose I have a languorous disposition
Marilyn Monroe
Some of my foster families used to send me to the movies to get me out of the house and there I'd sit all day and way into the night. Up in front, there with the screen so big, a little kid all alone, and I loved it. I loved anything that moved up there and I didn't miss anything that happened and there was no popcorn either.
Marilyn Monroe
You must feel attractive to be attractive.
Marilyn Monroe
...I've found out it's fun to go shopping. It's such a feminine thing to do.
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
Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.
Marilyn Monroe
The public doesn't mind people living together without being married, providing they don't overdo it.
Marilyn Monroe
I don't want to make money, I just want to be wonderful.
Marilyn Monroe
I don't know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot.
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
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
Just because you've failed once, it doesn't mean you're going to fail at everything.
Marilyn Monroe
We human beings are strange creatures and still reserve the right to think for ourselves.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame has a special burden, which I might as well state here and now. I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and sexual. But what goes with it can be a burden
Marilyn Monroe
I have never liked sex. I do not think I ever will. It just seems the opposite of love.
Marilyn Monroe
I don't want to play sex roles any more. I'm tired of being known as the girl with the shape.
Marilyn Monroe
If you spend your life competing with business men, what do you have? A bank account and ulcers!
Marilyn Monroe
I'm sin, but I'm not the devil.
Marilyn Monroe
I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am pretty, but not beautiful. I have friends, but I am not the peacemaker.
Marilyn Monroe
Do not worry, and worry.
Marilyn Monroe
