“Go where glory waits thee, But, while fame elates thee, Oh! still remember me”. - Quotes by Michel de Montaigne
“Fame and tranquility can never be bedfellows”. - Quotes by John Milton
“What needs my Shakespeare for his honour’d bones, The labour of an age in piled stones, Or that his hallow’d relics should be hid, Under a starry-pointing pyramid? Dear son of memory, great heir of fame, What need’st thou such weak witness of thy name? Fame is the spur that the clear spirit doth raise, (That last infirmity of noble mind) To scorn delights, and live laborious days. Fame is no plant that grows on mortal soil, Nor in the glistering foil, Set off to th’ world, nor in broad rumour lies. At last he rose, and twitch’dWoods, and Pastures new”.
- Quotes by Dame Nellie Melba

“You will feel that you are no longer clothing yourself; you are dressing a public monument”. - Quotes by Sophia Loren
“They do not make stars like they used to. Every girl looks so thin, no personality, as if they have come off the production line”.
