Fame
| Keywords:
accident, endures, fame, popularity, riches, The Vapors, vapor, vapors, wings
«Fame has sent a number of celebrities off the deep end, and in the case of Michael Jackson, to the kiddy pool.»
«A life lived with integrity - even if it lacks the trappings of fame and fortune is a shinning star in whose light others may follow in the years to come.»
«But those rare souls whose spirit gets magically into the hearts of men, leave behind them something more real and warmly personal than bodily presence, an ineffable and eternal thing. It is everlasting life touching us as something more than a vague, recondite concept. The sound of a great name dies like an echo; the splendor of fame fades into nothing; but the grace of a fine spirit pervades the places through which it has passed, like the haunting loveliness of mignonette.»

«A few can touch the magic string, and noisy fame is proud to win them: Alas for those that never sing, but die with all their music in them!»
«Are you not ashamed of caring so much for the making of money and for fame and prestige, when you neither think nor care about wisdom and truth and the improvement of your soul?»
