Blonde 👱‍♀️

I am not offended by all the dumb blonde jokes
because I know I'm not dumb... and I also
know that I'm not blonde.

Dolly Parton



1. Look on the blonde side.
2. Wear a smile.
3. Be smart (instead of seeming so).
4. Treasure your word (and your sisters).
5. Live passionately.
6. Don't judge (lest you be judged).
7. Have faith in yourself.



A man is not finished when he is defeated.
He is finished when he quits.

Epictetus






Marilyn is a kind of ultimate. She is uniquely
feminine. Everything she does is different,
strange and exciting; from the way she talks
to the way she uses that magnificient torso.
She makes a man proud to be a man.

Clark Gable


I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool
themselves. They didn't bother to find out who
or 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.

Marilyn Monroe


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

Marilyn Monroe


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.

Marilyn Monroe


I stopped eating animals a long time ago
because they deserve to be protected
from needless cruelty and violence.

Pamela Anderson


What people need to understand is that
if they are eating animals, they are
promoting cruelty to animals.

Pamela Anderson




As long as animals are considered an inferior
species, all kinds of evil and suffering will be
inflicted on them. They will be killed for our
needs, our leisure and pleasure.

Brigitte Bardot

they decide their habits
and their habits decide their futures.

F.M. Alexander

True behavior change is really identity change.

5. Avoid naysayers. 
6. Healthy habits.

seek advice from those who never left home.

Rumi

Our habits shape our beliefs.
