Creativity starts with humanity when were being human we feel - joys, sadness, when we're sick, when we're nervous

The truth is, I've never fooled anyone. I've let men sometimes fool themselves.

Fame is like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have it at every meal.

I'm sin, but I'm not the devil.

I guess I have always been deeply terrified to really be someone's wife since I know from life one cannot love another, ever, really.

Fame is fickle, and I know it. It has its compensations but it also has its drawbacks, and I've experienced them both.

I didn't pay much attention to the whistles and whoops, in fact, I didn't quite hear them. I was full of a strange feeling, as if I were two people. One of them was Norma Jeane from the orphanage who belonged to nobody; the other was someone whose name I didn't know. But I knew where she belonged; she belonged to the ocean and the sky and the whole world.
