One of the things I like best about men is they're a little vulnerable.
I've fallen in love with Brooklyn. I'm going to buy a little house in Brooklyn and live there. I'll go to the coast only when I have to make a picture.
Men love you more if they can be made a little uncertain about owning you.
I think I have always had a little humor.
I’ve given pure sex appeal very little thought. If I had to think about it I’m sure it would frighten me.
I believe in everything - a little bit.
I don't understand why people aren't a little more generous with each other.
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.
I'm looking forward to eventually becoming a marvelous - excuse the word marvelous - character actress. Like Marie Dressler, like Will Rogers.
I kept driving past the theatre with my name on the marquee. Was I excited. I wished they were using 'Norma Jeane' so that all the kids at the home and schools who never noticed me could see it.
Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius and it is better to be absolutely ridiculous then absolutly boring.
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.
It was like working with a little sister.
I wanna guy I can look up to . . . I just gotta feel that whoever I marry has some real regard for me, aside from all that loving stuff.
