Marilyn Monroe

0 comments Posted by car at 9:07 AM




























I think Marilyn Monroe is the only woman who gives the word sexy the most sexiest definition. But she was a very sensitive lady & she went through a lot. She was raped at the age of 17 & even the people in the film industry & politics were just bastards. Whenever I read about her, I feel really sorry. She was so pretty & yet she led such an unhappy life.

Marilyn Monroe Quotes

0 comments Posted by car at 9:02 AM

A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night.

Dogs never bite me. Just humans.

Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.

I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it.

I don't mind making jokes, but I don't want to look like one.

I've never dropped anyone I believed in.

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.

The thing I want more than anything else? I want to have children. I used to feel for every child I had, I would adopt another.

I've been on a calendar, but I've never been on time.

It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone - so far.
