Marilyn Monroe

"It's often just enough to be with someone. I don't need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not alone."

"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."

"Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul. I know, because I turned down the first offer often enough and held out for the fifty cents."

"I restore myself when I'm alone."

"Beneath the makeup and behind the smile I am just a girl who wishes for the world."

"All little girls should be told they are pretty, even if they aren't."

"If I'd observed all the rules I'd never have got anywhere."

"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."

"I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love."

"Who said nights were for sleep?"

"I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves. They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't."

"Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you."

"Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are."

"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."

"If you can make a woman laugh, you can make her do anything."

"We are all born sexual creatures,thank God, but it's a pity so many people despise and crush this natural gift."

"Just because you fall once, doesn't mean you're fall at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always trust yourself, because if you don't then who will??"

"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring."

"All a girl really wants is for one guy to prove to her that they are not all the same."

"All we demanded was our right to twinkle."
