Fame

"If I ever lose a role because of my tattoos, I'll quit Hollywood and go to work at Costco."

"There are the people who really, really enjoy being celebrities, and then there are the people who came by it maybe by accident."

"What is right is not always popular and what is popular is not always right."

"Success, fame, and fortune, they're all illusions. All there is that is real is the friendship that two can share."

"So much has been given to me I have not time to ponder over that which has been denied."

"All things of the body stream away like a river, all things of the mind are dreams and delusion; life is warfare, and a visit to a strange land; the only lasting fame is oblivion."

"The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom."

"Not everybody can be famous but everybody can be great, because greatness is determined by service."

"Never throughout history has a man who lived a life of ease left a name worth remembering."

"I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing."

"If I'd observed all the rules I'd never have got anywhere."

"When you become a celebrity, the world owns you and your image."
