Marilyn Monroe Quotes
“I'm selfish, impatient
and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at
times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then
you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”
― Marilyn Monroe
“I believe that everything
happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go,
things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you
believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself,
and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall
together.”
― Marilyn Monroe
“Imperfection is beauty,
madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than
absolutely boring.”

“This life is what you
make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a
universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're
going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it
anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay
with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't
let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the
world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate
to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going
to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up,
you'll never find your soulmate. You'll never find that half who
makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail
once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold
on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you
don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin
up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful
thing and there's so much to smile about.”
― Marilyn Monroe

virtue is much less important than her hair-do. You're judged by how

for the fifty cents.”

any other woman's and I can't live up to it”
