Quotes:

A man must love a thing very much if he not only practices it without any hope of fame and money, but even without any hope of doing it well.

View quotes by Oliver Herford

I am really excited about Battle of the Stars, the line-up looks fantastic. I've no doubt that despite their fame my hand holding will still be in high demand as they take on the judges often harsh words. Lets just hope I'm not having to mop up too many tears!
View quotes by Kate Thornton

Who fears not to do ill fears the name,
And free from conscience, is a slave to fame.
View quotes by Sir John Denham

Passion for fame: A passion which is the instinct of all great souls.
View quotes by Edmund Burke

The parks of Paris: the Bois de Boulogne, Parc Monceau, Vert Galant, Luxembourg, Tuileries, Buttes-Chaumont and others of varying size and fame - they symbolize man's humanity to man.
View quotes by Landt Dennis

Though a hundred crooked paths may conduct to a temporary success, the one plain and straight path of public and private virtue can alone lead to a pure and lasting fame and the blessings of posterity
View quotes by Edward Everett

None think the great unhappy, but the great (The Love of Fame)
View quotes by Edward Young

I don't want to take fame for granted because that is when you start to think you are better than everyone else. That is when you start thinking that you are someone that you are not.
View quotes by Mandy Moore

Who would not rather have the fame of Archimedes than that of his conqueror Marcellus? [Archimedes himself maybe?]
View quotes by William Hamilton

Fame comes only when deserved, and then is as inevitable as destiny, for it is destiny.
View quotes by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I have a notion that gamblers are as happy as most people, being always excited; women, wine, fame, the table, even ambition, sate now and then, but every turn of the card and cast of the dice keeps the gambler alive - besides one can game ten times longer than one can do any thing else.

View quotes by Lord Byron

If you are ambitious of climbing up to the difficult, and in a manner inaccessible, summit of the Temple of Fame, your surest way is to leave on one hand the narrow path of Poetry, and follow the narrower track of Knight-Errantry, which in a trice may raise you to an imperial throne.
View quotes by Miguel De Cervantes

I'll take anyway to get into the Hall of Fame. If they want a batboy, I'll go in as a batboy.
View quotes by Phil Rizzuto

Fame is addictive. Money is addictive. Attention is addictive. But golf is second to none.
View quotes by Marc Anthony

I've hear the diva rumours, they crack me up. I'm such a plain Jane. And my roots are so instilled in me that it's not that weird to go home. I think it depends on the kind of person you are; whether you're easily drawn to the superficial things, but that's not who I am. People driven by the money and fame, I've seen how it makes them and that life means nothing to me. [Elle UK March 2004]
View quotes by Christina Aguilera

The love of fame is almost another name for the love of excellence; or it is the ambition to attain the highest excellence, sanctioned by the highest authority, that of time.
View quotes by William Hazlitt
