Wasn't She Beautiful?

"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."

— Marilyn Monroe
 
A really smart quote from someone who was generally considered ditzy. I've always loved this particular picture. It conveys that unique mixture of innocence and sexuality that's associated with Marilyn.
 
RIP June 1, 1926 – August 5, 1962.
 
BTW, found this interesting piece of info from snopes, debunking the urban legend that Marilyn was a size 16 dress. There goes that justification for the second piece of cake.
