Sometimes Ive been to a party where no one spoke to me for a whole evening. The men, frightened by their wives or sweeties, would give me a wide berth. And the ladies would gang up in a corner to discuss my dangerous character. – Marilyn Monroe
My work is the only ground Ive ever had to stand on. To put it bluntly, I seem to have a whole superstructure with no foundation, but Im working on the foundation. – Marilyn Monroe
I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated. – Marilyn Monroe
I am invariably late for appointments – sometimes as much as two hours. Ive tried to change my ways but the things that make me late are too strong, and too pleasing. – Marilyn Monroe
I think people feel threatened by homosexuality. The problem isnt about gay people, the problem is about the attitude towards gay people. People think that all gays are Hannibal Lecters. But gay people are sons and daughters, politicians and doctors, American heroes and daughters of American heroes. – Hollis Stacy
