Aus Simon Hoggarts immer erfreulichen diary im Samstags-Guardian (den man allein schon wegen der Buchbeilage kaufen sollte):

When [Arthur Miller] was courting Marilyn Monroe, he took her to his mother's New York appartment for dinner. The walls were thin and Monroe was obsessed by the fear that people would hear her peeing, so when she went to the bathroom she turned on all the taps to disguise the sound. A day or so later Miller's mother wrote to say that she thought his new girlfriend was very beautiful and very nice, "but Arthur, she pisses like a horse".
