Box office success has never meant anything. I couldn't get a film made if I paid for it myself. So I'm not 'box office' and never have been, and that's never entered into my kind of mind set.

Let's all try to conserve water. But it's OK to shower.
I usually like to keep to myself, but others can tell if I'm upset because I'm keeping to myself.
