Marilyn Monroe
I've often stood silent at a party for hours listening to my movie idols turn into dull and little people.
Marilyn Monroe
Nearly everyone I knew talked to me about God. They always warned me not to offend Him.
Marilyn Monroe
But chiefly, no lies! No lies about there being a Santa Claus or about the world being full of noble and honorable people all eager to help each other and do good to each other. I'll tell her there are honor and goodness in the world, the same as there are diamonds and radium.

Marilyn Monroe
Being a movie star was never as much fun as dreaming of being one.

Marilyn Monroe
Nights are not just for sleep.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm thirty-six years old. I'm just getting started!
Marilyn Monroe
A girl does not need anyone who does not need her.
Marilyn Monroe
For life: it is rather a determination not to be overwhelmed. For work: the truth can only be recalled, never invented.
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 it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them.
Marilyn Monroe
Ever since I became a movie star,I've been really weird.
Marilyn Monroe
