Fame is a silly business. People who chase it are almost always going to be disappointed.

Fame obviously has become a premium in everybody's life. Everybody thinks they deserve it, everybody thinks they want it and most people really don't enjoy it once they get it.

Everybody wants their fame. They long for it, and I think they don't much care how they get it - to attract attention to themselves.

Fame for fame's sake is toxic - some people want that, with no boundaries. It's unhealthy.

I don't have a problem with fame. I got into this business intending to be very successful, but I wanted it to be at my price.

Sometimes I'm uncomfortable with the level of fame I've got! It all depends on the day and what's going on. I don't desire any more fame. I don't need it.

It takes a very strange person to enjoy fame, with all the by-products that come with it. It's not necessarily a thrill.

People aren't honest about the horrors of fame. The downsides are so overwhelming that, for me, there is no payoff.

Some people obtain fame, others deserve it.

Thank God I've never had the sort of intense fame that means you can't walk up the road. That sort of blazing stardom must be difficult to cope with and maintain; my career has just bubbled along happily.
