Fame means so little about somebody when you come right down to it.

Fame is a mind - a way of thinking about things. It's all in your mind.

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

Fame is something I think happens as a result of trying to do good work. If you're trying to be famous, your work usually suffers.

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

Fame is hollow. It amplifies what is there. If there is any self-doubt, or hatred, or lack of ability to connect with people, fame will magnify it.

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

Well, any time you're faced with fame on that level, it's - it can be somewhat unnerving because you're never taught how to manage it and how to deal with it. So you're sort of left out there on your own, trying to navigate those waters for yourself.

I often say fame is kind of like a drug or like sugar: when it's controlling you it doesn't feel good at all.

I think fame is hard in any capacity. It's so fleeting; it's not anything that you can really grab.
