Fame is a fickle thing that only lasts as long as you can be out there offering yourself to the public. And as soon as you relax for five minutes, they're gone, you know, and they're following somebody else.

Fame is ultimately about the cycles of desire and how to do away with them or manage them well.

Fame is damaging when people become reliant on it for their sense of self, and their identity, when fame is linked to how you see yourself.

Fame is a weird one. You need to distance yourself from it. People see a value in you that you don't see yourself.

I try not to focus on fame; I don't even really know what it means exactly because it's so fleeting.

A lot of things come with fame, whether it's losing friends or losing family.

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.

Some people obtain fame, others deserve it.

Wealth, beauty, and fame are transient. When those are gone, little is left except the need to be useful.

I've always said that fame is fleeting, but anonymity can last a lifetime.
