famous

I never wanted to be famous.

Dave Attell

   

It's considered good sportsmanship not to pick up lost golf balls while they are still rolling.

Mark Twain

   

My office walls are covered with autographs of famous writers - it's what my children call my 'dead author wall.' I have signatures from Mark Twain, Earnest Hemingway, Jack London, Harriett Beecher Stowe, Pearl Buck, Charles Dickens, Rudyard Kipling, Alfred, Lord Tennyson, to name a few.

Debbie Macomber

   

I actually don't feel famous.

Anwar Robinson

   

Well, I think a lot of people just want to be famous.

Dan Fogler

   

Many medal winners dream of competing in a sport other than the one they're famous for.

Mary Lou Retton

   

Of course, Hollywood is still making some excellent pictures which reflect the great artistry that made Hollywood famous throughout the world, but these films are exceptions, judging from box office returns and press reviews.

Pola Negri

   

We need to teach our kids, because there is such a celebrity culture at the moment, that however rich you are, however famous you are, however glamorous you are, everyone has to live by the same rules.

Nick Clegg

   

I don't know how to construct a career that'll make me famous. Except maybe get my ears pinned back, get my teeth done, and go to America. But then I'll be competing with billions of actors who haven't got false teeth, and who are 25.

Ian Hart

   

I never wanted to be a celebrity I never wanted to be famous. And in my daily life, I work really hard to not trade on it in any way.

Sarah Jessica Parker

   

Well I would say that we're regular people first of all and we're normal and it's obvious by some of the things that have happened just because our name is famous we're not immune to tragedy.

Brett Favre

   

Right now I'm the most famous silent movie actress in the world and I want to keep that for me. So I hope there's not going to be any other silent movies.

Berenice Bejo

   

Being a famous actress may give you a sense of being important, but believe me, it's just an illusion.

Juliette Binoche

   

I never feel so utterly fraudulent as when I review a movie whose charms impress all in the world and I simply do not get it. The other variant is that I love something the world disdains. This has had severe career consequences: I am still famous - or notorious - in certain quarters where I am recalled as the man who liked 'Hudson Hawk.'

Stephen Hunter

   

I don't think I'll ever be comfortable with the idea of being famous.

Alison Lohman

   

I don't care how famous a guitarist is, he ain't learned everything. There's always somewhere to go, something to mash up, but he ain't found it yet. You never learn everything on that guitar neck.

David Edwards

   

If you look closely, there is no book more visual than Three Trapped Tigers, in that it is filled with blank pages, dark pages, it has stars made of words, the famous magical cube made of numbers, and there is even a page which is a mirror.

Guillermo Cabrera Infante

   

I don't want to be more famous than what I have right now. At least in that sense where people come up to me in the grocery store.

Kathleen Robertson

   

I know it's a cliche but I never wanted to be famous. I don't believe anybody wants to be famous.

Jeremy Renner

   

It took me fifteen years to discover I had no talent for writing, but I couldn't give it up because by that time I was too famous.

Robert Benchley
