"This was the moment Marilyn had been working toward since she was a sad, lonely little girl in an orphanage" (Leaming 88).
Response:
This quote describes how when someone really wants something and they work hard for it, the goal is attainable. Many people want things but the never put dedication toward those things so in the end they are left with nothing. However, this wasn't the case for Marilyn since she actually won her stardom after trying countless times.
