Marilyn Monroe

I want to grow old without facelifts. I want to have the courage to be loyal to the face I've made.

The body is meant to be seen, not all of it, but enough to entice.

I'm not a sex symbol. I'm just a well-meaning girl who likes to be noticed.

Fame is a fickle friend, Mr. Arthur. It's here today, gone tomorrow.

I sleep in two drops of Chanel No. 5.

When you're young and healthy, you can say anything. But when you get older, you have to be careful.

People are strange. They are constantly judging. They are constantly comparing. They are constantly criticizing. And they are never satisfied.

I hate to be alone. I'm afraid to be alone. I don't want to be alone.

I am not a phenomenon. I am a natural woman.

I was never used to being alone. I always had someone around.

I have too many fantasies to be a housewife.

I don't think I'm a sex symbol. I think I'm just a nice girl.

I knew a boy once who was so shy, he used to turn around when he talked to me.

I'm not a victim. I'm just a person who has had a lot of bad luck.

I don't want to be a movie star. I want to be a good actress.

I don't know what it is, but I know it's not me.

A sex symbol becomes a thing. I just hate to be a thing.

Men who think that a woman’s past love affairs lessen her love for them are usually stupid and weak.

We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle.
