Quote by Victor Hugo

Popularity It is glory's small change.

Popularity It is glory's small change.

Summary

This quote highlights the fleeting and superficial nature of popularity. It suggests that popularity is like small change compared to true human achievements and the pursuit of glory. While being popular may bring temporary recognition and attention, it does not necessarily equate to real success or fulfillment. The quote implies that true glory lies in deeper and more meaningful accomplishments, rather than seeking validation solely from being popular.
