12 Life Lessons from Marilyn Monroe

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. “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.”

3. “Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”

4. “Sometimes things fall apart so that better things can fall together”

5. “Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about.”

6. “It’s better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone.”

7. “This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you’re going to mess up sometimes, it’s a universal truth.”

8. ” Just because you fail once, doesn’t mean you’re gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don’t, then who will”

9. “If I’d observed all the rules I’d never have got anywhere.”

10. “We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid. So are regrets.”

11. “We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle.”

12. “I restore myself when I’m alone.”
