“And I don't want to live anywhere where I am famous. It makes me very, very uncomfortable, because it conveys an advantage over people, and I don't like that.”

“Just because you're not famous, doesn't mean you're not good.”

“For me, getting comfortable with being famous was hard - that whole side of it, the loss of anonymity, the loss of privacy. Giving up that part of your life and not having control of it.”

“I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated.”
