“Stop pathetically believing that you deserve fame or fame deserves you. It's yucky, and it's only making you miserable, so stop.”
“The time of getting fame for your name on its own is over. Artwork that is only about wanting to be famous will never make you famous. Any fame is a by-product of making something that means something. You don't go to a restaurant and order a meal because you want to have a shit.”
“The best fame is a writer's fame. It's enough to get a table at a good restaurant, but not enough to get you interrupted when you eat.”
“It's just my humble opinionBut it's one that I believe inYou don't deserve a point of viewIf the only thing you see is you”
“Fame can't give you a hug. Fame can't keep you warm. The only way fame can keep you warm, is if you put all your publicity in a pile and burn it.”
“It's you. You deserve this. There is a reason this is happening to you.”
