AND  AS  WE  ARE  TALKING  ABOUT  MARILYN  JUST  GOT  TO  ADD  THIS:

Remembrance: Lamenting- Marilyn Monroe

If my life could be lived again I would make every decision — except about being an actress — differently. But the result would probably be the same, so it has all been worth it.

Marilyn Monroe

Bill Pursel: 'She didn't find the little cottage and white picket fence; the three children and loving dog she sought. She loved the publicity and attention she attracted, but she was not happy. She sank into the quicksand of Hollywood like many others have done, but placing blame for the inevitable is folly. I was surprised at her death. What a tragedy. Norma Jeane had a pure soul, and an immense love of life. She was kind and generous; loved children and animals and had a strong backbone - she almost single-handed made herself a world renowned star and was so profound I was almost afraid of her. To me she was like a dream and that is what she really was. Raising this past has brought melancholy to a very private part of my life and if Norma Jeane is looking down on all this, I hope she is smiling.'

A. C. Lyles: 'I join all her friends in Hollywood who had the privilege of knowing her; we remember her with devotion and love. Each of us felt a personal loss and the industry was deprived of a great talent at an early age. As time goes on she becomes more legend. One has only to 'say "Marilyn" and everyone knows that means Marilyn MonroeuHer first name is all the identification needed.'

George Chakiris: 'When Marilyn died, I was in Japan making a movie and I remember being so sad because it seemed to be our loss. But she lives forever on film, she gave so much, she had a deep caring for her work and cared a great deal. Actors care about the parts they play, but Marilyn cared even deeper. She was glorious, something else. She stands alone and is incredibly unique. When I need cheering up, I watch "Diamonds" or the opening number of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and it lifts my spirits. Marilyn was a lovely, kind person who wouldn't hurt a fry; she was adorable but that isn't even a good enough word. She was so gifted.'

Jim Gough: 'The memories I have of Marilyn are of a friendly person, full of attention for everyone, from bricklayers to painters and artists. She was far from being a snob, an eccentric, or a manic-depressive during the times I spent with her. Marilyn was slender and full of energy, at peace with herself, and concerned about other people's wellbeing. She was eagerly facing the future and anxious to see what might happen next. She was in full control of her life and seemed to be looking forward to her career as a mature actress. She was excited to harvest the fruits of her labour; her two most precious possessions, were her house and her little white dog, Maf, whom she adored so much.'

ONE OF THE GREAT SAYINGS I LOVE FROM MARILYN  IS  THIS  ONE:

"I  DON'T  MIND  LIVING  IN  A  MAN'S  WORLD,  AS  LONG  AS  I  CAN  BE  A  WOMAN  IN  IT."

AND  INDEED  SHE  WAS  QUITE  THE  WOMAN,  NOT  JUST  PRETTY  ON  THE  OUTSIDE,  BUT  HAD  ALSO  A  WONDERFUL  NATURE  ON  THE  INSIDE.

Joe Coudert: 'It was a surprise when she passed away, since she was so young. That made it even more tragic for us, and we were greatly saddened. I often wonder what Ms Monroe would have been like if she was alive today .... Clearly, she would be the 
   Queen of Hollywood.'

YES  INDEED  SHE  WOULD  BE  QUEEN  OF  HOLLYWOOD  IF  ALIVE  TODAY.

AGAIN  WHEN  YOU  SEE  THE  2014 CALENDARS  OF  MARILYN,  AT  LEAST  YOU  WHO  READ  THIS  BOG  WILL  KNOW  THE  REAL  MARILYN,  JUST  AS  BEAUTIFUL  ON  THE  INSIDE.
