Marilyn Monroe In Her Own Words 

'If I'd observed all the rules, I'd never have got anywhere.'

'I don't know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot.'

'I'm trying to find myself as a person, sometimes that's not easy to do. Millions of people live their entire lives without finding themselves. But it is something I must do. The best way for me to find myself as a person is to prove to myself that I am an actress.'

'Creativity has got to start with humanity and when you're a human being, you feel, you suffer.'

'I love to do the things the censors won't pass.'

'A career is born in public -- talent in privacy.'

'My illusions didn't have anything to do with being a fine actress. I knew how third rate I was. I could actually feel my lack of talent, as if it were cheap clothes I was wearing inside. But, my God, how I wanted to learn, to change, to improve!'

'I'm for the individual as opposed to the corporation. The way it is the individual is the underdog, and with all the things a corporation has going for them the individual comes out banged on her head. The artist is nothing. It's really tragic.'

'Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.'

Learn More About Marilyn Monroe 

Marilyn MonroeShe obtained an order from the City Court of the State of New York and legally changed her name to Marilyn Monroe on February 23, 1956.[http://www.marilynmonroe.com/about/facts.html Marilyn Monroe's Official Web site .::. Fast Facts] (1 June 1926 - 5 August 1962) ? born Norma Jeane Mortenson, but baptized Norma Jeane Baker ? was a celebrated American actress, singer, and model.

After spending much of her childhood in foster homes, Monroe began a career as a model, which led to a film contract in 1946. Her early roles were minor, but her performances in The Asphalt Jungle and All About Eve (both 1950) were well received. She was praised for her comedic ability in such films as Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, How to Marry a Millionaire, and The Seven Year Itch, and became one of Hollywood's most popular and glamorous performers.

The typecasting of Monroe's "dumb blonde" persona limited her career prospects, so she broadened her range. She studied at the Actors Studio and formed Marilyn Monroe Productions. Her dramatic performance in William Inge's Bus Stop was hailed by critics, and she won a Golden Globe Award for her performance in Some Like it Hot.

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 has not been ruled out, while conspiracy theorists argue that she was murdered.

In 1999, Monroe was ranked as the sixth greatest female star of all time by the American Film Institute.
