"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." — Marilyn Monroe "A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left." — Marilyn Monroe "If you can make a woman laugh, you can make her do anything." — Marilyn Monroe "Ever notice how 'What the hell' is always the right answer?" — Marilyn Monroe "It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone." — Marilyn Monroe "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." — Marilyn Monroe "I don't mind living in a man's world, as long as I can be a woman in it." — Marilyn Monroe | "Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring." — Marilyn Monroe "The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space." — 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 "All little girls should be told they are pretty, even if they aren't." — Marilyn Monroe | "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 they're 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." — Marilyn Monroe "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." — Marilyn Monroe "If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty." — Marilyn Monroe "We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid. So are regrets." — Marilyn Monroe "She was a girl who knew how to be happy even when she was sad. And that’s important—you know " — Marilyn Monroe "Beneath the makeup and behind the smile I am just a girl who wishes for the world." — Marilyn Monroe "The nicest thing for me is sleep, then at least I can dream." — Marilyn Monroe |
