“I want to be an artist, an actress with integrity. When I’m older, I’ll play all kinds of parts. My teacher, Lee Strasberg, has always said to me—you know, I always say ‘I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I’m always a little nervous’—and he says ‘When you’re not, give up!’ Because nervousness indicates sensitivity.” -MM to author Richard Meryman in her final interview with LIFE magazine, published on August 3rd, 1962. Marilyn Monroe by Bert Stern for Vogue magazine, Bel Air Hotel, early-July 1962.

Absolutely tear apart “I’m being forced to marry this woman” jokes. I hate them so fucking much. Do you know how much of a let down it is to see the person you love and share so much with turn around and rag on you to your friends as “the ol’ ball and chain”? Imagine trusting and respecting someone so much that you’re willing to commit your life to a union with them, and meanwhile they’re talking about how their life could only get worse if they were married to you. Destroy the idea that a man’s life is best when he’s a player, and that his life is “over” once he allows a woman into it. Destroy the idea that all women are controlling, horrible bridezillas. How disenchanting it is to see so many people shit all over the love between two people.

Respect your fucking wife. If you can’t do that, don’t get married.
