ourgirlmarilyn: “If you ever thought about her at all, no matter who you were, if you had any heart at all, it would make you cry. She was everything beautiful and sad in this world. She lost babies and husbands and she drank and took pills and she had a light pouring out from under her skin, like her spirit was too bright for one persons body.”- Francesca Lia Block “To understand Marilyn best, you have to see her around children. They love her, her whole approach to life has their kind if simplicity and directness.”- Arthur Miller “She knows the world but this knowledge has not lowered her great and benevolent dignity, it’s darkness has not dimmed her goodness.”- Dame Judith Sitwell “I thought I’d seen them all; being in the business I’d seen so many models and actresses. But I’d never seen anyone with that tone of voice, that kindness, that real softness.”- Milton Greene “She was a beautiful child. What she has - this presence, this luminosity, this flickering intelligence… It’s so fragile and subtle, it can only be caught by camera. It’s like a hummingbird in flight; only a camera can freeze the poetry of it.” - Constance Collie “She’s wonderful. Cosmological. I wanted to put a picture of her in my latest book, as a celestial object.” - Stephen Hawking “I have an admiration for Marilyn Monroe that—no, it’s more than admiration. I have a love for that woman. For me she represents the highest point of femininity. There’s something childish and sincere and overwhelming with her, I never saw anyone who gave off so much charm and warmth and tenderness and femininity all at once.” - Catherine Deneuve “My sister was a very hard working person. She was very beautiful. She was very..wonderful to everybody. She loved people. She loved animals. And she was very serious about her work.”- Berniece Baker Miracle “She is so wise. She is deep and she is soulful. And she is really creative. I think that one of Marilyn’s greatest qualities is her vulnerability and maybe one of her worst. But she stood up for her power and her talent. She was way ahead for her time. I just think she is really special. We all do.”- Kelli Garner -- source link
