About life
Like any professional, I started climbing from the very bottom step, not knowing what lay ahead of me...
Everyone starts somewhere.
I'm selfish, impatient and insecure. I make mistakes, I can lose my temper and can be difficult to handle at times. But if you cannot communicate with me when I am in a bad mood, then you do not deserve my company in a good mood.
True friends and loved ones should be able to communicate with you, even when you are at your most insane!))
Learn to be a good friend, learn to respect your friends. Always remember that friends will help you in difficult times faster than family. Don't forget that they will take care of you no matter what.
Appreciate your friends.
I think there are reasons for everything. People cheat and you learn not to be offended by them. There are so many wrong things around that you begin to appreciate when you find the right ones among them. You believe when you are deceived, but eventually you learn not to trust anyone but yourself.
Life teaches you to believe only in yourself.
How wrong it is if a woman waits for a man to build the world of her dreams, and does not create it herself.
You should never just sit and wait for something or someone. You must always start acting on your own. Then the assistant will appear...)
A career is great, but it won't keep you warm on a cold night.
A career is good, but besides it there must be a family.
Just because you failed once doesn't mean you will fail at everything.
Life is like a zebra, failures constantly alternate with success.
To be late means to make sure that you are expected. It is you and no one else. Know that you are irreplaceable.
If they didn’t wait for you, then their wait and devotion are worthless...
Smile because life is beautiful and there are many more reasons to smile.
Smile, because life is beautiful!
If you are facing the past, then you are standing with your back to the future...
You need to be able to let go of the past, then the future will have a chance to come to you...
About men
It should be good to live with a man; I can live badly myself.
If a relationship with a man brings only problems, then it’s better without him...
Honestly, I don't need someone who only sees the good in me, I want someone who sees the bad in me but still wants to be with me.
A loving person is able to accept all shortcomings.
There should be a real man next to the lady, and let the mops get the rags!
To get a real man, you first need to be a lady yourself.
A strong man does not need to assert himself at the expense of a woman who had the weakness to love him. He already has a place to show his strength.
A real man does not need to assert himself.
Husbands tend to be good in bed when they cheat on their wives.
They cannot, by their very nature, not change...
Men don't look at me. They glance at me, but that's not it.
Admiration and temptation are not the same. We need sincere feelings.
All men are the same. And they have different faces only so that women can distinguish them.
Nature created them the same.
The most unsuccessful lover is the man who is proud of his masculinity and treats sex as if it were some form of athletics in which you win cups. A woman's spirit and mood are what a real man should stimulate to make sex interesting.
A man should always think about a woman first. Always and everywhere, bed is no exception.
A husband is a person who always forgets your birthday and never misses a chance to tell you your age.
Reminding a woman of her age is the weakness of men.

About Me

I am most definitely a woman, and that makes me happy.
I agree to live in a world ruled by men as long as I can be a woman in this world.
I'm not offended when they say that I'm a fool - I know that's not true.
I have the most amazing memory for forgetting things.
I don't worry about being considered glamorous and sexy. But the thought of what to do about it makes me nervous.
I was not used to being happy and therefore did not consider happiness something obligatory for myself.
I'm trying to find myself as a person, sometimes it's not easy to do.
The dream of millions cannot belong to one.
A sex symbol is just a thing, and I hate being a thing. But if we’re going to be a symbol, it’s better to be a symbol of sex than anything else.
People have a habit of looking at me as if I am a mirror and not a person. They don't see me, they see their own lustful thoughts and then they put on a white mask and call me lustful.
I didn't make a woman. Men, because of my image as a sex symbol, created by them and myself, expect too much from me - they expect bells to ring and whistles to blow. But my anatomy is no different from any other woman's. I don't live up to expectations.
For the first time in my life I am not asked to open my mouth and spread my legs. That's lucky!
I always felt like I didn't exist; The only way for me to be is probably to be someone else. That's why I wanted to become an actress.
I only know one thing: I want to be great.
I started my career as a stupid blonde slut. And I’ll end the same way.
Hollywood is where they pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul. I know this because I turned down the first one more than once and held out my hand for fifty cents.
All my life I belonged only to the viewer. Not because I was great, but because no one else needed me.
I spent most of my life running from myself.
I dress for men. Women always look at my wardrobe critically. And only men can truly appreciate it.
Designers want to dress me like spring, in flowing clothes. But I don't feel like spring. I feel like warm red autumn.
Although I appear on calendars, I am not known for punctuality.
I have never abandoned someone I believed in.
I have never deceived anyone. But I allowed people to be deceived. They didn't try very hard to find out who I really was. But they easily invented me.
I never tan - I like to be completely blonde.
I have so many fantasies of being a housewife. I guess that I am a dreamer...
The most valuable thing for me is sleep, at least then I can dream.
Dogs have never bitten me. Only people.
When difficult days come, I think: it would be nice to become a cleaner to sweep away the inner pain.
I want to grow old without plastic surgery. They make the face lifeless and deprive it of character. I wish I had the courage to remain true to the person I created.
I'm just a little girl in a big world trying to find love.
About life ethics
If I followed all the rules, I wouldn't get anything.
How wrong it is for a woman to wait for a man to build the world she wants, rather than create it herself!
Don't worry, but worry.
If you are facing the past, then you are standing with your back to the future.
I know I shouldn't be afraid. But not to be afraid would mean not to be at all.
Just because you get burned once doesn't mean you'll get burned all the time. Keep trying, keep at it, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, who will?
Never go back to what you decided to leave. No matter how much they ask you, and no matter how much you want it yourself. Having conquered one mountain, begin to storm another.
It should be good to live with a man; I can live badly myself.
If you can't communicate with me when I'm in a bad mood, then you don't deserve me in a good mood.
There should be a real man next to the lady, and let the mops get the rags!
I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not.
It's better to be absolutely funny than absolutely boring.
Children, especially girls, should always be told that they are beautiful and that everyone loves them. If I have a daughter, I will always tell her that she is beautiful, I will comb her hair and I will not leave her alone for a minute.
About relationships
I don't need someone who sees only the good in me, I need someone who sees the bad in me, but still wants to be with me.
Every girl should never forget that she doesn't need those who don't need her.
It's better to be alone than unhappy with someone.
It's nice to be part of a fantasy, but it's even better to be loved for who you really are.
A smart girl kisses but does not love, listens but does not believe and leaves before she is left.
Women who are just trying to be on an equal footing with men have little ambition.
A strong man does not need to assert himself at the expense of a woman who had the weakness to love him. He already has a place to show his strength.
A true lover is the man who can excite a woman simply by touching her head or smiling while looking into her eyes. Or just staring into space.
All men are the same: first they use you, and then they throw you away like old, worn socks...
If you can make a girl laugh, then you can make her do anything.
Men who think that a woman's past love interests diminish her love for them are usually stupid and weak.
About women and men
We beautiful women have a responsibility to appear stupid so as not to bother men.
And I am a real blonde. But people don’t just become blonde by nature.
A wise girl knows her boundaries. A smart girl knows that she doesn't have them.
We women only have two weapons... Mascara and tears, but we can't use both at the same time.
Two things should be beautiful in a girl: her eyes and her lips, because with her eyes she can make you fall in love, and with her lips she can prove that she loves you.
All men are the same. And they have different faces only so that women can distinguish them.
Men think that girls are like books - if the cover is not attractive, then it is not worth reading.
Only a man humiliated by fate can insult a woman.
Men have a sincere respect for everything that causes boredom.

About life
Life is too important a thing to talk about seriously.
The one thing you want most in life, as a rule, cannot be bought with money.

They are so bright and so lonely. Our world is a world of appearances.

Dreaming of becoming an actress is more exciting than being one.

Happy Birthday Mr. President: Marilyn Monroe and John Kennedy
Soon, Marilyn Monroe began an affair with the President of the United States himself - it seems that there is nowhere to aim higher. Despite the fact that he already had a wife, Jacqueline, ordinary residents did not shy away from this secret of Marilyn Monroe and John Kennedy. Although there is still no official confirmation of the affair, everyone seemed to know about Mr. President's hobby.
Marilyn Monroe watches John Kennedy play with his daughter
One of the most striking images of Marilyn and her most scandalous public appearances was a song congratulating John Kennedy on his 45th birthday.
Marilyn Monroe performs the song “Happy birthday, Mr. President! at Madison Square Garden
However, watch the video for yourself:
Outstanding vocal abilities? The same cannot be said about Monroe. But the song was performed so sensually that journalists later said that Marilyn was making love to Kennedy in front of 40 million Americans!
The actress's look was simply incredible: a snow-white mink cape, which she threw off on stage, and underneath was a tight-fitting flesh-colored dress strewn with sparkling stones. There was no underwear underneath - it was perfectly visible, and in general, it seemed to the audience that in the spotlight, Marilyn was standing absolutely without clothes, simply strewn with rhinestones.
The body is meant to be seen, not hidden under clothing.
“Leather and beads” is what Marilyn Monroe called such dresses. The original cost of the outfit was $12,000, and 37 years later it was sold at auction for 1.26 million.
After this song by Marilyn Monroe, John Kennedy was furious at such a public display of feelings. But whether they broke up or reconciled, it was impossible to find out - fate did not spare the lovers.
