We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle.
Marilyn Monroe
An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine.
Marilyn Monroe
Fear is stupid. So are regrets.
Marilyn Monroe
Fame is like caviar, you know — it's good to have caviar but not when you have it at every meal.
Marilyn Monroe
If I'd observed all the rules, I'd never got anywhere.
Marilyn Monroe
No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl. All little girls should be told they're pretty, even if they aren't.
Marilyn Monroe
A wise girl knows her limits, a smart girl knows that she has none.
Marilyn Monroe
Some of my foster families used to send me to the movies to get me out of the house and there I'd sit all day and way into the night. Up in front, there with the screen so big, a little kid all alone, and I loved it. I loved anything that moved up there and I didn't miss anything that happened and there was no popcorn either.
Marilyn Monroe
Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.
Marilyn Monroe
I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I'm out of control, and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you don't deserve me at my best.
