Anna Nicole Smith
Marrying into money was not a good thing for me.Collection: Money
I have been alone since my husband died. I stay in my home. I don't date. It's hard to date when you're at home. Nobody knows you.Collection: Alone
It's very expensive to be me. It's terrible the things I have to do to be me.
I'm going to fight until the end. My husband is worth it. He wanted me to have it. He was worth a lot. He was a very, very wealthy man.
For some reason, people think I am this terrible person and it really hurts me to hear that. I am just doing the best I know how to.
I did Playboy. There was an ad in the paper for playmates. Playboy called me and flew me to Los Angeles, and I was on the March cover of 1992.
I am just so happy and thrilled and I am so glad Mr. Hefner chose me.
I don't drink as much as I use to could.
I just feel a connection with Marilyn Monroe. I just love her. I just completely feel what she went through.
One thing about living in a small town, I knew everybody and everybody knew me.
I couldn't make ends meet. I tried Red Lobster. I tried Wal-Mart. I tried all these places and I couldn't make it. I couldn't. So, I tried this gentlemen's club, and, you know, I worked there, and it was just awful in those places. It was terrible.
I don't have a boyfriend right now. I'm looking for anyone with a job that I don't have to support.
I wanted to become a model and an actress.
You never know if they like you for who you are or what you are. Would he love me or the money?
Vickie Lynn Hogan is my birth certificate's name.
People are just so stupid.
Living in a small town, I knew everybody and everybody knew me.
If I have another child, I doubt I'll get married again. I don't think men particularly want to be with me.
I never thought to ever ask for money. I was so stupid.
I don't understand why God took him and didn't take me.
I was 23, and he was 86. I saw a very sick man. I just wanted to just talk with him. There was no physical attraction at all. He was very much attracted to me.
Men don't even ask me out. I can't remember the last time I was asked out on a date, and I'm talking years here. I spend my life more and more alone.
I don't date. It's hard to date when you're at home. Because nobody knows you.
I want to be the new Marilyn Monroe.
I just know I'm going to be an actress. I want it so bad.
'Anna Nicole' came from Guess Jeans; Paul Marciano and me and one of his friends, we were sitting around coming up with a stage name, and that's where that came from.
I'm sick of being accused of gold-digging. It just so happens I get turned on by liver spots.Collection: Sick
A ghost would crawl up my leg and have sex with me at an apartment a long time ago in Texas. I used to think it was my boyfriend, and one day I woke up and it wasn't. I was freaked out about it, but then I was, like, 'Well, you know what? He's never hurt me and he just gave me some amazing sex, so I have no problem.Collection: Hurt
Nobody has ever respected me and done things for me and loved me. So when Howard (former husband J. Howard Marshall II) came along, it was a blessing. He is the only person in my life who does not care about what other people say about me. He truly loves me and I love him for it.Collection: Husband
It's very expensive to be me.Collection: Expensive

I grew up poor. I had no money. My family was poor. There's things I wanted to do and couldn't. I was an abused wife. Just - there's tons of things that I couldn't even mention. And for me to come up and to have all of this fame and fortune, it's just - it is a Cinderella story to me.Collection: Wife
I didn't know what Guess jeans were. I just shopped at Wal-Mart and Kmart and stuff like that.Collection: Kmart
