Fame Quotes Quotes

“Most of the Hollywood stars are pretty old and I never even heard of their names. Makes you think. These people were super famous back in the day. They were adored by millions of fans at one point. But nowadays nobody remembers who they were or what they did. Pretty sad. When even past superstars don't leave much of an impression on history, what chance do we regular folks have of being remembered after we die? None.”

“Before you chase success, status, power, wealth fame or love; first fall in love with yourself - for the person you'll be if and when you get there is still the same. Success will be a painful path and an empty trophy without self acceptance, self worth or if littered with self hate.”

“We must resolve to live our lives and to build our lives in such a way, that if every ounce of fame were to dissipate tomorrow, and the only people who still remember our names are the few people around us who have true love for us in their hearts-- we would still be able to go on living life with an equal or even greater amount of happiness than before. You see, we must resolve to live our lives in such a way, that the worth and the value of it all comes from those things that are a part of our souls. You fill your soul with what is a part of it, with people who have made you a part of their hearts, and things that bring you awe. Then if all the world were to disappear before your eyes, just not any part of your soul, then you are okay! You are still happy. You can wake up to a new morning in a world that doesn't know you, retaining every ounce of worth that you had before! And maybe even more.”

“Wealth won’t make you happy. Power won’t make you remarkable. Fame won’t make you honorable. Education won’t make you wise.”

“A star doesn’t need words to tell the world what it does; it just shines.”

“If you guide others out of the dark, you are a star, even if no one knows your name.”

“Stars don’t beg the world for attention; their beauty forces us to look up.”

“Let your ideas die, let your art die, let your fame die, let all these disappear, but you live! You are more important than your thoughts, more important than your art and your fame, you are more important than all your works! Never change life with anything else! If necessary, give up everything, everything but life!”

“Talent silences your competition; genius deafens them.”

“Ordinary people pursue money, simple people pursue power, average people pursue fame, but extraordinary people pursue ideas.”

“Stars are born out of dark moments.”

“My Road to Recovery'? I heard myself suggest, and it struck me, not for the first time, that the tone we journalists adopt can be horribly flip. Several times. over the course of my career, I've caught myself skimming over the surface of a subject's life, without pausing to reflect on the realities of their joys and suffering. Yet it was true that something about George's disintegration mesmerised people. Which would sell more papers, I wondered: his redemption or his failure?”

“Literary Awards offer no guarantee that the fame they create will last. Today, not many readers know the authors who won the Nobel prize in literature in the thirties, forties, fifties or even nineties. But, who doesn’t know William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Victor Hugo or Jean-Paul Sartre who stood the test of time without winning a prestigious prize?”

“The moment is the morning cup of coffee and the truth from the writer's pen, the clarity of the poem, desolation & creation. Fame, glory & once upon a times never matter in the end. The only thing that matters or that will still one-day matter or remain alive are the words that you write long after you are gone ... or dust.”
