Quote by Victor Hugo

Popularity? It is glory's small change

Popularity? It is glory's small change

Summary

This quote suggests that popularity is only a superficial and insignificant form of fame or recognition. While popularity may bring others' attention and admiration, it is not true glory or a significant measure of one's worth or achievements. Like small change, popularity is seen as trivial, lacking real value or substance. The quote urges us to look beyond popularity and strive for true accomplishments and meaningful contributions that bring genuine fulfillment and lasting impact.
