Marilyn Monroe 1926–1962 I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it. 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. A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night. Well behaved women rarely make history What Is Your favorite Marilyn Monroe Quote?
"I'm very definitely a woman and I enjoy it." "I am not interested in money. I just want to be wonderful." I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and sexual. Beauty and femininity are ageless and can't be contrived, and glamour, although the manufacturers won't like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real glamour; it's based on femininity. We are all born sexual creatures, thank God, but it's a pity so many people despise and crush this natural gift. Art, real art, comes from it, everything. Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring
"I've often stood silent at a party for hours listening to my movie idols turn into dull and little people." "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 cents." Quotes About Fame "There was my name up in lights. I said, 'God, somebody's made a mistake.' But there it was, in lights. And I sat there and said, 'Remember, you're not a star.' Yet there it was up in lights." "I am involved in a freedom ride protesting the loss of the minority rights belonging to the few remaining earthbound stars. All we demanded was our right to twinkle." "I used to think as I looked at the Hollywood night, 'there must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me, dreaming of becoming a movie star. But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest." "People respect you because they feel you've survived hard times and endured, and although you've become famous, you haven't become phony." Quotes About Acting "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." "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!" "I knew I belonged to the public and to the world, not because I was talented or even beautiful, but because I had never belonged to anything or anyone else."
Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition. What do I wear in bed? Why, Chanel No. 5, of course. Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul. I learned to walk as a baby and I haven't had a lesson since. "I don't mind living in a man's world, as long as I can be a woman in it."
"If I'd observed all the rules, I'd never have got anywhere." Marilyn Monroe "I restore myself when I'm alone." I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when their right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. 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
You think every girl's a dope. You think a girl goes to a party and there's some guy in a fancy striped vest strutting around giving you that I'm-so-handsome-you-can't-resist-me look. From this she's supposed to fall flat on her face. Well, she doesn't fall on her face. But there's another guy in the room, over in the corner. Maybe he's nervous and shy and perspiring a little. First, you look past him. But then you sense that he's gentle and kind and worried. That he'll be tender with you, nice and sweet. That's what's really exciting. It's not how long it takes, it's who's taking you. Roslyn: Well, what do you do with yourself? Funniest Movie Quotes When it gets hot like this, you know what I do? I keep my undies in the icebox! I don't care how rich he is, as long as he has a yacht, his own private railroad car, and his own toothpaste.
"I don't want to be rich, I just want to be loved." A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left
