Trying to build myself up with the fact that I have done things right that were even good and have had moments that were excellent but the bad is heavier to carry around and feel have no confidence.

Today...major actors and actresses develop their own projects or, at the very least, cherry-pick their roles carefully to suit not only their tastes but also whatever image they have cultivated to present to their public. Most major stars have their own production companies through which such projects are developed and even financed. While the biggest male stars of that time did in fact have their own production companies--Jimmy Stewart, Kirk Douglas, John Wayne, and Burt Lancaster, to name a few--and thus exerted creative and financial control over their careers, that was not the case with female stars. But Marilyn Monroe was about to change that.

Candle In the Wind

Author: Bernie Tauplin

Goodbye Norma Jeane.
Though I never knew you at all.
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled.
And they crawled out of the woodwork,
And they whispered into your brain,
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name.

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind,
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in.
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid,
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did.

Loneliness was tough.
The toughest role you ever played.
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid.
Even when you died
The press still hounded you-
All the paper had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude.

Goodbye Norma Jeane.
Though I never knew you at all.
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled.

Goodbye Norma Jeane.
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something more than sexual,
More than just our Marilyn Monroe.

Elton John

The difference between Marilyn’s and Jayne’s approach to intellectual pursuits is that Marilyn carried big heavy books around and hung out with brainy people to absorb their intellect, while Jayne really had a thirst for knowledge. Jayne was very proud of the fact that if she like something enough she would commit it to memory. At that time, The Satanic Bible was still in monograph form, and Jayne had pored over those pages until she knew most of it by heart...Marilyn gave me a copy of Stendhal’s On Love, and I still have a copy of Walter Benton’s This is My Beloved, which we bought together on Sunset Boulevard. Marilyn turned me on to it—wanted me to read it and write something in it for her. I got as far as writing her name in it, but I ended up with the book. It meant a lot to me during a particularly dark period in my life after I left L.A. Jayne kept insisting I read The Story of O and I, Jan Cremer. She gave me a dog-eared copy of each. It seems a distinctly feminine trait to want to share books with people they care deeply about.
