“She has a certain indefinable magic that comes across, which no other actress in the business has.” - Billy Wilder

“To have survived, she would have had to be either more cynical or even further from reality than she was. Instead, she was a poet on a street corner trying to recite to a crowd pulling at her clothes.” - Arthur Miller

THIS IS INCREDIBLE.

This is such a lovely lovely quote and photoset!

Another reason I can’t stand the ‘Marilyn Monroe’ tag - pictures like this. Although it’s a nice quote Marilyn did NOT say this. Size zero didn’t even exist until four years after Marilyn died!

I can’t believe people actually think she said this.

Today, to celebrate Marilyn's birthday, I sang Happy Birthday to her!!! I was alone walking my dog and I just began to sing to her. I felt, as I sang, that she was listening.

Awww that is so sweet! I’m sure she heard :]

Happy 86th Birthday Marilyn

“I used to sit near Marilyn Monroe in the Actor’s Studio. She’d get dressed up because that was her identity. Sad. Those cameras wouldn’t leave her alone. She didn’t know where to hide.”
