Quote by Marilyn Monroe, (describing Holl
A place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss, and fifty cents for your soul.
Summary
This quote expresses the irony or dissatisfaction in a society where materialism and superficial gains are valued more than the integrity and well-being of one's own being. It highlights the skewed priorities and the tendency to prioritize external rewards and validation over personal values and emotional fulfillment. The contrast between the high payment for a simple act like a kiss and the minimal worth attached to one's deep inner self serves as a critique of a system that can commodify and exploit human desires and vulnerabilities.
