This is what I would say to my pupil: 'You have become only your fame and left behind most of who you were. How are you going to deal with that? Will you lose that person forever? Have you become someone else without really knowing it? Do you always have to stay in character for people to like you? Do you know that you are in character?'.

Character is what you have left when you've lost everything you can lose.

Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.

When all is said and done the only thing you'll have left is your character.

Fame is definitely a monster: it can suck you in and spit you out and change you. The biggest challenge is to remain yourself regardless of what people say about you.

That's what fame does to you. You acquire another self.

I feel like fame is wasted on me.

I don't like the idea that fame could mean that people can no longer relate to me.

I don't see myself as famous at all so I'm continuing my life as normal.

Fame is something that is bestowed upon you because of success. Success is something you have to chase.
