More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
Looking back, I guess I used to play-act all the time. For one thing, it meant I could live in a more interesting world than the one around me.
Marilyn Monroe
Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty? You wouldn't marry a girl just because she's pretty, but my goodness, doesn't it help?
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
I've been on a calendar, but I've never been on time.
Marilyn Monroe
I don't stop when I'm tired. I only stop when I'm done.
Marilyn Monroe
Wouldnt it be nice to be like men and get notches in your belt... and not get emotionally involved?
Marilyn Monroe
I'm so many people. They shock me sometimes. I wish I was just me! I used to think I was going crazy, until I discovered that some people I admired were like that to.
Marilyn Monroe
Most men judge your importance in their lives by how much you can hurt them.
Marilyn Monroe
The outside world wants me to have glamour my fans want me glamorous. I won't let them down.
Marilyn Monroe
A man makes you feel important - makes you glad you are a woman.
Marilyn Monroe
Arthur Miller wouldn't have married me if I had been nothing but a dumb blonde.
Marilyn Monroe
In Hollywood a girl's virtue is much less important than her hairdo. You're judged by how you look, not by what you are. Hollywood's a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for kiss, and fifty cents for your soul. I know, because I turned down the first offer often enough and held out for the fifty.
Marilyn Monroe
I have noticed... that men usually leave married women alone and are inclined to treat all wives with respect. This is no great credit to married women.
Marilyn Monroe
All my stepchildren carried the burden of my fame. Sometimes they would read terrible things about me, and I'd worry about whether it would hurt them. I would tell them: 'Don't hide these things from me. I'd rather you ask me these things straight out, and I'll answer all your questions.'
Marilyn Monroe
The thing I want more than anything else? I want to have children. I used to feel for every child I had, I would adopt another.
Marilyn Monroe
If your man is a sports enthusiast, you may have to resign yourself to his spouting off in a monotone on a prize fight, football game or pennant race.
Marilyn Monroe
You know, most people really don't know me.
Marilyn Monroe
It's almost having certain kinds of secrets for yourself that you'll let the whole world in on only for a moment.
Marilyn Monroe
If a man doesn't want you at your worst, then he sure as hell doesn't deserve you at your best.
Marilyn Monroe
A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left.
Marilyn Monroe
