#Fame

"Don’t overact the story of your name. Overact the story of your work."

"Fame always brings loneliness. Success is as ice cold and lonely as the North Pole."

"The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do without thought of fame. If it comes at all it will come because it is deserved, not because it is sought after."

"Money is not equal for all people. A strong personal brand adds more lift and leverage. One dollar from me may buy a soda from a car dealership, but one dollar from Justin Bieber may get him a Ferrari. And they'd pay him to drive away."

"The life given us, by nature is short; but the memory of a well-spent life is eternal."

"An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have."

"The presence of God is so important in the life of believers. There is abundance of all you need to make your life comfortable in His presence."

"I don’t want fame, money, or duty. I want to close my eyes and see your loving beauty."

"Don't set your goals by what other people deem important."

"God rewards every act of obedience to His Will."

"Fame necessarily isn't really tied to success at all. Fame is just being recognized for doing what you do, whether it's good or bad. Osama bin Laden was famous."

"Whether you are an astronomer or a life scientist, geophysicist, or a pilot, you've got to be there because you believe you are good in your field, and you can contribute, not because you are going to get a lot of fame or whatever when you get back."

"We're constantly striving for success, fame and comfort when all we really need to be happy is someone or some thing to be enthusiastic about."

"Don't blow off another's candle for it won't make yours shine brighter."

"People who do a job that claims to be creative have to be alone to recharge their batteries. You can’t live 24 hours a day in the spotlight and remain creative. For people like me, solitude is a victory."

"Lolita is famous, not I. I am an obscure, doubly obscure, novelist with an unpronounceable name."

"Do not yearn to be popular; be exquisite. Do not desire to be famous; be loved. Do not take pride in being expected; be palpable, unmistakable."

"But Dumbledore says he doesn't care what they do as long as they don't take him off the Chocolate Frog cards."

"I have been to lots of partiesand acted perfectly disgracefulbut I never actually collapsedoh Lana Turner we love you get up"

"I had a boyfriend who told me I’d never succeed, never be nominated for a Grammy, never have a hit song, and that he hoped I’d fail. I said to him, ‘Someday, when we’re not together, you won’t be able to order a cup of coffee at the fucking deli without hearing or seeing me."
