&quot;I&#039;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&#039;t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;A wise girl kisses but doesn&#039;t love, listens but doesn&#039;t believe, and leaves before she is left.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe<br /> &quot;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.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;Who said nights were for sleep?&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;Sex is part of nature. I go along with nature.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe
