1. A wise girl kisses but doesn’t love, listens but doesn’t believe, and leaves before she is left.
2. I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.
3. The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space.
4. Before marriage, a girl has to make love to a man to hold him. After marriage, she has to hold him to make love to him.
5. It’s better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone.
6. I’ve never fooled anyone. I’ve let people fool themselves. They didn’t bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn’t argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn’t.
7. It’s often just enough to be with someone. I don’t need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You’re not alone.
8. I have feelings too. I am still human. All I want is to be loved, for myself and for my talent.
9. All a girl really wants is for one guy to prove to her that they are not all the same.
10. Love and work are the only two real things in our lives. They belong together, otherwise it is off. Work is in itself a form of love.
11. I could never pretend something I didn’t feel. I could never make love if I didn’t love, and if I loved I could no more hide the fact than change the color of my eyes.
______________________________ Excerpt from Wikipedia: Marilyn Monroe (born Norma Jeane Mortenson but baptized and raised as Norma Jeane Baker; June 1, 1926 – August 5, 1962) was an American actress, singer, model and showgirl who became a major sex symbol, starring in a number of commercially successful motion pictures during the 1950s.
After spending much of her childhood in foster homes, Monroe began a career as a model, which led to a film contract in 1946 with 20th Century Fox. Her early film appearances were minor, but her performances in The Asphalt Jungle and All About Eve (both 1950) drew attention to her—by now her hair was dyed blonde. By 1953, Monroe had progressed to a leading role in Niagara (1953), a melodramatic film noir that dwelled on her seductiveness. Her “dumb blonde” persona was used to comic effect in subsequent films such as Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953), How to Marry a Millionaire (1953) and The Seven Year Itch (1955). Limited by typecasting, Monroe studied at the Actors Studio to broaden her range. Her dramatic performance in Bus Stop (1956) was hailed by critics, and she received a Golden Globe nomination. Her production company, Marilyn Monroe Productions, released The Prince and the Showgirl (1957), for which she received a BAFTA Award nomination and won a David di Donatello award. She received a Golden Globe Award for her performance in Some Like It Hot (1959). Monroe’s final completed film was The Misfits, co-starring Clark Gable with the screenplay written by her then-husband, Arthur Miller.
The final years of Monroe’s life were marked by illness, personal problems, and a reputation for being unreliable and difficult to work with. The circumstances of her death, from an overdose of barbiturates, have been the subject of conjecture. Though officially classified as a “probable suicide”, the possibility of an accidental overdose, as well as the possibility of homicide, have not been ruled out. In 1999, Monroe was ranked as the sixth greatest female star of all time by the American Film Institute. In the years and decades following her death, Monroe has often been cited as both a pop and a cultural icon as well as the quintessential American sex symbol.
1. 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.
2. A career is wonderful, but you can’t curl up with it on a cold night.
3. I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
4. Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.
5. A sex symbol becomes a thing. I just hate to be a thing.
6. If you can make a girl laugh, you can make her do anything.
7. An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine.
8. If you’re gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.
9. When it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I’m already better than them.

15. I don’t mind living in a man’s world, as long as I can be a woman in it.
16. Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition.
17. It’s not true that I had nothing on. I had the radio on.
18. We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle.
19. Fame will go by and, so long, I’ve had you, fame. If it goes by, I’ve always known it was fickle. So at least it’s something I experience, but that’s not where I live.

21. If I’d observed all the rules I’d never have got anywhere.
22. I want to grow old without facelifts. I want to have the courage to be loyal to the face I have made.
23. Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn’t that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you.
24. Sex is part of nature. I go along with nature.
25. I don’t want to make money, I just want to be wonderful.
26. I don’t know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot!
27. You never know what life is like, until you have lived it.

29. Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.
30. What do I wear in bed? Why, Chanel No. 5, of course.
31. I knew I belonged to the public and to the world, not because I was talented or even beautiful, but because I had never belonged to anything or anyone else.
32. Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are.
33. Some people have been unkind. If I say I want to grow as an actress, they look at my figure. If I say I want to develop, to learn my craft, they laugh. Somehow they don’t expect me to be serious about my work.
34. I live to suceed, not to please you or anyone else.
35. How wrong it is for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself.
36. Boys think girls are like books, If the cover doesn’t catch their eye they won’t bother to read what’s inside.
37. Just because you fail once doesn’t mean you’re gonna fail at everything.
38. Your clothes should be tight enough to show you’re a woman but loose enough to show you’re a lady.
1. Loves conquers all things except poverty and toothache.
2. A woman has got to love a bad man once or twice in her life to be thankful for a good one.
3. A woman in love can’t be reasonable – or she probably wouldn’t be in love.
4. All discarded lovers should be given a second chance, but with somebody else.
5. Love isn’t an emotion or an instinct – it’s an art.
—————————————- Excerpt from Wikipedia: Mae West, born Mary Jane West (August 17, 1893 – November 22, 1980) was an American actress, playwright, screenwriter and sex symbol.

One of the more controversial movie stars of her day, West encountered many problems including censorship.
When her cinematic career ended, she continued to perform on stage, in Las Vegas, in the United Kingdom, on radio and television, and recorded rock and roll albums.
1. In a separation it is the one who is not really in love who says the more tender things.
2. What a profound significance small things assume when the woman we love conceals them from us.
3. In his younger days a man dreams of possessing the heart of the woman whom he loves; later, the feeling that he possesses the heart of a woman may be enough to make him fall in love with her.
4. People who are not in love fail to understand how an intelligent man can suffer because of a very ordinary woman. This is like being surprised that anyone should be stricken with cholera because of a creature as insignificant as the comma bacillus.
—————————————- Excerpt from Wikipedia: Valentin Louis Georges Eugène Marcel Proust (10 July 1871 – 18 November 1922) was a French novelist, critic and essayist best known for his monumental À la recherche du temps perdu (In Search of Lost Time; earlier translated as Remembrance of Things Past). It was published in seven parts between 1913 and 1927.
1. As long as men are free to ask what they must, free to say what they think, free to think what they will, freedom can never be lost and science can never regress.
2. Every reader finds himself. The writer’s work is merely a kind of optical instrument that makes it possible for the reader to discern what, without this book, he would perhaps never have seen in himself.
3. If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time.
4. In theory one is aware that the earth revolves, but in practice one does not perceive it, the ground upon which one treads seems not to move, and one can live undisturbed. So it is with Time in one’s life.

7. We must never be afraid to go too far, for truth lies beyond.

9. Time, which changes people, does not alter the image we have retained of them.
17. It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.
18. Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.
19. Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for greater developments and greater riches and so on, so that children have very little time for their parents. Parents have very little time for each other, and in the home begins the disruption of peace of the world.
—————————————————- Excerpt from Wikipedia: Mother Teresa (August 26, 1910 – September 5, 1997), born Agnesë Gonxhe Bojaxhiu, was an Albanian Roman Catholic nun with Indian citizenship who founded the Missionaries of Charity in Kolkata (Calcutta), India in 1950. For over 45 years she ministered to the poor, sick, orphaned, and dying, while guiding the Missionaries of Charity’s expansion, first throughout India and then in other countries.
By the 1970s she was internationally famed as a humanitarian and advocate for the poor and helpless, due in part to a documentary, and book, Something Beautiful for God by Malcolm Muggeridge. She won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 and India’s highest civilian honour, the Bharat Ratna, in 1980 for her humanitarian work. Mother Teresa’s Missionaries of Charity continued to expand, and at the time of her death it was operating 610 missions in 123 countries, including hospices and homes for people with HIV/AIDS, leprosy and tuberculosis, soup kitchens, children’s and family counselling programs, orphanages, and schools.
She has been praised by many individuals, governments and organizations; however, she has also faced a diverse range of criticism. These include objections by various individuals and groups, including Christopher Hitchens, Michael Parenti, Aroup Chatterjee, Vishva Hindu Parishad, against the proselytizing focus of her work including a strong stance against abortion, a belief in the spiritual goodness of poverty and alleged baptisms of the dying. Several medical journals also criticised the standard of medical care in her hospices and concerns were raised about the opaque nature in which donated money was spent.
Following her death she was beatified by Pope John Paul II and given the title Blessed Teresa of Calcutta.

1. Love is like the measles. The older you get it, the worse the attack.
