I have Internet fame. Real fame is more intense.
When God lets loose a great thinker on this planet, then all things are at risk. There is not a piece of science but its flank may be turned to-morrow; nor any literary reputation or the so-called eternal names of fame that many not be refused and condemned.
Fifteen minutes of fame doesn't make a career. An article in a magazine, newspaper, interview on television or multiple print ads may stroke your ego, but nothing much else. An artist's career is a lifetime venture. Just because an artist is on top doesn't mean they are sheltered from a crash. As has been stated, the higher you climb, the harder you fall.
Maintain your post: That's all the fame you need; For 'tis impossible you should proceed.
Everyone has the power for greatness, not for fame but greatness, because greatness is determined by service.
Look at Jessica Simpson. She's famous for being dumb. I guess it started with Marylyn Monroe, and she actually wasn't that dumb, but that's how she was perceived - and that's what got popular.
I'm quite happy with the music carrying on. I've never been one to clamor for fame. It just got dumped in my lap. The ambition is definitely not fame. The ambition is to be creative.
Fame is not just. She never finely or discriminatingly praises, but coarsely hurrahs.
Fame is a powerful aphrodisiac.
Egalitarianism is possible only in small social systems. Once a medium gets past a certain size fame is a forced move.
I'm not a rock star. Sure I am, to a certain extent because of the situation, but when kids ask me how it feels to be a rock star, I say leave me alone, I'm not a rock star. I'm not in it for the fame, I'm in it because I like to play.
Who fears not to do ill fears the name, And free from conscience, is a slave to fame.
Fame means when your computer modem is broken, the repair guy comes out to your house a little faster.
Fame is a food that dead men eat, I have no stomach for such meat.
Oh, when shall Britain, conscious of her claim, Stand emulous of Greek and Roman fame? In living medals see her wars enroll'd, And vanquished realms supply recording gold?
When I started out, I didn't have any desire to be an actress or to learn how to act. I just wanted to be famous.
I was worried that I didn't have as many Facebook 'likes' as another musician. You can almost feel like a failure if you aren't building your fame in that way.
For a good man fame is always a problem.
The fire in the belly is essential, otherwise you become Michael Buble - famous and meaningless.
One principal characteristic of vice in the present age is the contempt of fame.
