Fame doesn't redeem you. It takes a long time to get there, and when you're finally there, you realise you still have authority figures telling you what to do.

I feel like fame is wasted on me.

Fame is a curse... it was the worst phase of my life, which I thank God I'll never have to go through again.

Fame is an odd thing. It bugs you a little bit, but it's really not bad.

In the end we are all sacked and it's always awful. It is as inevitable as death following life. If you are elevated there comes a day when you are demoted. Even Prime Ministers.

I don't really care about having more fame than I have.

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.

Fame is fickle, and I know it. It has its compensations but it also has its drawbacks, and I've experienced them both.

I understand why people achieve a level of fame and disappear, I never understood it before, but it's an attractive prospect to walk away from it all.
