: ) My World ( :

Today, the name "Marilyn Monroe" is synonymous with beauty, sensuality and effervescence. She remains an inspiration to all who strive to overcome personal obstacles for the goal of achieving greatness.

These are some of my favourite quotes by Marilyn Manroe :

"No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl. All little girls should be told they are pretty, even if they aren't."

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

"An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine."

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

"Only the public can make a star. It's the studios who try to make a system out of it."
