Quote by Tama Janowitz

With publicity comes humiliation.

With publicity comes humiliation.

Summary

This quote suggests that when one attains a certain level of fame or public attention, they also open themselves up to the potential for embarrassment or disgrace. Being in the spotlight means that their actions, behaviors, and mistakes become more visible and subject to scrutiny by others. Public figures, in particular, may face extensive media coverage, criticism, and judgment, which can lead to feelings of humiliation. Therefore, the quote implies that visibility and recognition often come at the cost of personal vulnerability and the risk of public shame.

He'd have given me rolling lands, Houses of marble, and bill

He'd have given me rolling lands, Houses of marble, and billowing farms, Pearls, to trickle between my hands, Smoldering rubies, to circle my arms. You- you'd only a lilting song, Only a melody, happy and high, You were sudden and swift and strong- Never a thought for another had I. He'd have given me laces rare, Dresses that glimmered with frosty sheen, Shining ribbons to wrap my hair, Horses to draw me, as fine as a queen. You- you'd only to whistle low, Gayly I followed wherever you led. I took you, and I let him go- Somebody ought to examine my head!

You know that kind of quiver that trembles around through you when you are seeing something so strange and enchanting and wonderful that it is just a fearful joy to be alive and look at it; and you know how you gaze, and your lips turn dry and your breath comes short, but you wouldn't be anywhere but there, not for the world.
