I love a natural look in pictures. I like people with a feeling one way or another - it shows an inner life. I like to see that thereโs something going on inside them.
Marilyn MonroeI've always felt those articles somehow reveal more about the writers than they do about me.
Marilyn MonroeI'm a failure as a woman. My men expect so much of me, because of the image they've made of me- and that I've made of myself- as a sex symbol. They expect bells to ring and whistles to whistle, but my anatomy is the same as any other woman's and I can't live up to it.
Marilyn MonroeThere is a need for aloneness, which I don't think most people realise for an actor. It's almost having certain kinds of secrets for yourself that you'll let the whole world in on only for a moment, when you're acting. But everybody is always tugging at you. They'd all like sort of a chunk of you.
