More quotes by Marilyn Monroe
An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine.
Marilyn Monroe
In spite of everything life is not without hope.
Marilyn Monroe
The chief drawback with men is that they are too talkative.
Marilyn Monroe
No girl should ever forget that she doesn't need anyone who doesn't need her.
Marilyn Monroe
My illusions didn't have anything to do with being a fine actress. I knew how third rate I was. I could actually feel my lack of talent, as if it were cheap clothes I was wearing inside. But, my God, how I wanted to learn, to change, to improve!
Marilyn Monroe
People always ask me if I believe diamonds are a girl's best friend. Frankly, I don't.
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
Frankly, I've never considered my own figure so exceptional until quite recently, I seldom gave it any thought at all
Marilyn Monroe
...I've found out it's fun to go shopping. It's such a feminine thing to do.
Marilyn Monroe
I am alone I am always alone no matter what.
Marilyn Monroe
The studio people want me to do Good-bye Charlie for the movies, but I'm not going to do it. I don't like the idea of playing a man in a woman's body - you know? It just doesn't seem feminine.
Marilyn Monroe
I won't be satisfied until people want to hear me sing without looking at me. Of course, that doesn't mean I want them to stop looking.
Marilyn Monroe
Of course, it does depend on the people, but sometimes I'm invited places to kind of brighten up a dinner table like a musician who'll play the piano after dinner, and I know you're not really invited for yourself. You're just an ornament.
Marilyn Monroe
If a star or studio chief or any other great movie personages find themselves sitting among a lot of nobodies, they get frightened - as if somebody was trying to demote them.
Marilyn Monroe
I usually eat four or five raw carrots with my meat, and that is all. I must be part rabbit I never get bored with raw carrots
Marilyn Monroe
I remember when I was in high school I didn't have a new dress for each special occasion. The girls would bring the fact to my attention, not always too delicately. The boys, however, never bothered with the subject. They were my friends, not because of the size of my wardrobe but because they liked me.
Marilyn Monroe
In Hollywood a girl's virtue is much less important than her hairdo.
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
I used to say to myself, 'What the devil have you got to be proud about, Marilyn Monroe?' And I'd answer, 'Everything, everything,' and I'd walk slowly and turn my head slowly as if I were a queen.
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.
