Quote
A person whom works exclusively for money places a price tag on his or her soul. A person whom labors to attain fame seeks a false form of adulation. The writer ignores the lure of a glamorous life by seeking to penetrate the darkness of their own being and meditate the larger issues that frame existence. A seeker knowingly follows a path that is barren, bleak, desolate, and unproductive in terms of attaining recognition and exulted social and financial status.

Fame in posterity is like wreaths or bouquets of flowers offered to a beautiful maid now that she is a skeleton. They are there to give credit to the flowers or the giver of them rather than to the dead maid. - On Posthumous Fame.
