Marilyn later said that during her time at the orphanage she took refuge in a fantasy life: ”I sometimes told the other orphans I had real wonderful parents who were away on a long trip and would come for me any time, and once I wrote a postcard to myself and signed it from Mother and Daddy. Of course nobody believed it. But I didn’t care. I wanted to think it was true. And maybe if I thought it was true it would come true.”
Ten years after Norma Jeane left the orphanage, Mrs. Dewey added the final entry in her file: “Norma Jeane Baker has great success in pictures and promises to be a star. She is a very beautiful woman and is now acting as Marilyn Monroe.”
In the early years of her career, the publicity department at Twentieth Century-Fox seized upon Marilyn’s stay at the orphanage as an excellent angle to promote their promising starlet, and wrote in her studio biographies that she was indeed an orphan. In consequence, a scandal erupted in 1952 when a journalist discovered that Marilyn’s mother Gladys Baker was alive, if not particularly well, in a northern California mental institution.
Arthur Miller writes that Marilyn never got over the sense of abandonment she felt at being placed at the orphanage. Even after she could “walk into a crowded room and spot anyone there who had lost parents as a child or have spent time in orphanages… There is a ‘do you like me?’ in an orphan’s eyes, an appeal out of bottomless loneliness that no parented person can really know.”

Gosh, Michael Fassbender is hot. Is that relevant here? Or is it always relevant?
Valentine: “the reason she left me was to protect you. Jonathan she hated, but you, she would have done anything to protect you. To protect you from me. She even lived among mundanes, which I know must have pained her. It must have hurt her never to be able to raise you with any of our traditions. You are half of what you could have been. You have your talent with runes, but it’s been squandered by your mundane upbringing” City of Glass
