Christmas Eve

"Who said nights were for sleep?" ~MM

Crazy?

"They think I'm crazy, but trust me, I'm 100 percent there." ~MM

Being Yourself

"Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are" ~MM

Play-Acting

"Looking back, I guess I used to play-act all the time. For one thing, it meant I could live in a more interesting world than the one around me." ~MM

Doubletime

"I have never been very good at being a member of any group -- more than a group of two, that is." ~MM

Incorporated

“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.”~MM

Meant To Be Seen

"The body is meant to be seen, not all covered up." ~MM

High Heels

"I don't know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot!" ~MM

Best/Worst

"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." ~MM

Hollywood

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

Definitely a Woman

"I'm very definitely a woman and I enjoy it. " ~MM

Foundation

"To put it bluntly, I seem to have a whole superstructure with no foundation. But I'm working on the foundation." ~MM

Creativity

"I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated. ... Goethe said, 'Talent is developed in privacy,' you know? And it's really true. ... Creativity has got to start with humanity and when you're a human being, you feel, you suffer. You're gay, you're sick, you're nervous or whatever." ~MM

Jokes

"I don't mind making jokes, but I don't want to look like one." ~MM

Cleavage

"The trouble with censors is that they worry if a girl has cleavage. They ought to worry if she hasn't any." ~MM

Belonging

"I knew I belonged to the public and to the world, not because I was talented or even beautiful, but because I had never belonged to anything or anyone else." ~MM

Stupid Questions

"If I play a stupid girl and ask a stupid question, I've got to follow it through, what am I supposed to do, look intelligent?" ~MM

Musical Interlude 2

Never On Time

"I've been on a calendar, but never on time." ~MM

Dream the Hardest

"I used to think as I looked out on the Hollywood night — there must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me, dreaming of becoming a movie star. But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest." ~MM

Real Glamour

"I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and sexual. Beauty and femininity are ageless and can't be contrived, and glamour, although the manufacturers won't like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real glamour; it's based on femininity." ~MM

Success

"Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you." ~MM

What You Are

"It's better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you're not." ~MM

Break the Rules

"If I'd observed all the rules I'd never have got anywhere." ~MM

Life Is What You Make It

"This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And, baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. 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, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about." ~MM

Radio

"It's not true that I had nothing on. I had the radio on." ~MM

Pretty

"All little girls should be told they are pretty, even if they aren't." ~MM

Curl

"A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night." ~MM

Twinkle

"We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle." ~MM

Sparkly

"Diamonds are a girl's best friend." ~MM

Better

"It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone." ~MM

Sleepless

"Who said nights were for sleep?" ~MM

Musical interlude

The Real Lover

"The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space." ~MM

Wish for the World

"Beneath the makeup and behind the smile I am just a girl who wishes for the world." ~MM

Fear Is Stupid

"We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid. So are regrets." ~MM

Chanel No. 5

"What do I wear in bed? Why, Chanel No. 5, of course." ~MM

The Right Shoes

"Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world." ~MM

What The Hell?

"Ever notice how 'What the hell' is always the right answer?" ~MM

A Wise Girl

"A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left." ~MM

Let Them Think What They Want

"When it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them." ~MM

Let People Fool Themselves

"I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves. They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't." ~MM

Make One of Them Pretty

"If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty." ~MM

Make a Girl Laugh

"If you can make a girl laugh, you can make her do anything." ~MM

Imperfection is Beauty

"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring." ~MM

Everything Happens for a Reason

"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, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." ~MM
