Recognition that comes fast, goes away fast.

Fame is the measure of neither character nor wisdom.

If you make boozed up youngsters with no comprehension of civilization your role model, you will end up with a world outwardly sophisticated yet inwardly broken and empty. Remember, a singer who publicly practices eroticism on stage, is no more empowering than a dog who pees at the corner of the street.

It takes a conscious practice of reason to recognize greatness in the making and shallowness in the limelight.

Never trust a tabloid over a human being.
