I don’t think I’m supposed to boss other people around just because I’m a so-called celebrity or star. I hate that when people act that way. No one deserves it. I’ve seen it happen. I don’t call those people out – they know who they are. Some enjoy that reputation.
Dolly PartonI try not to go around looking like a hag.
Dolly PartonI’ve never had that much trouble with the paparazzi, but I don’t run the same circles that a lot of these people that do get hounded by the paparazzi.
Dolly PartonI admire people who destroy themselves.
Karl LagerfeldGetting recognized is insane. It just blows my mind. Like, someone who you don’t know at all can just be like, ‚Oh my God – are you Billie?‘
Billie EilishI think the message has already been sent to Hollywood, which is that this kid’s a hard worker, he’s talented, and people are coming out to see him. And when you have box-office results, Hollywood treats you different. Hollywood stands up.
Kevin HartIf cash comes with fame, come fame; if cash comes without fame, come cash.
Jack LondonIn Hollywood a girl’s virtue is much less important than her hairdo.
Marilyn MonroeBecoming famous was never what I wanted to do. There’s a lot of things that come with fame – it’s what people in the limelight have to do.
Bruno MarsFirst, I want to pay tribute to Diana myself. She was an exceptional and gifted human being. In good times and bad, she never lost her capacity to smile and laugh, nor to inspire others with her warmth and kindness. I admired and respected her – for her energy and commitment to others, and especially for her devotion to her two boys.
Queen Elizabeth III don’t consider myself an intellectual. And this is not one of my aims. But I admire intellectual people.
Marilyn MonroeI heard that when Christina Aguilera went back to her prom, people, like, booed her. I can’t imagine going through that. If you know that’s going to happen, why put yourself in that situation? I’d rather play for 20,000 screaming people, you know?
Taylor SwiftJudgements prevent us from seeing the good that lies beyond appearances.
Wayne DyerOne civilization after another has been wrecked upon the attempt to secure sufficient leadership from a single group or class.
Herbert HooverYou’d be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap!
Dolly PartonI’m a bookworm. I know with my physical appearance that I don’t look like the typical reader. I’m in Barnes & Noble all the time, and you can look at people that look like they are supposed to be in there. I am in there, pants sagging, hat backwards.
Kevin GatesThe thing is that what you see on Snapchat, that’s DJ Khaled. That’s Khaled for real. That’s Khaled.
DJ KhaledAh! yes, I know: those who see me rarely trust my word: I must look too intelligent to keep it.
Jean-Paul SartreThe true artist is not proud: he unfortunately sees that art has no limits; he feels darkly how far he is from the goal, and though he may be admired by others, he is sad not to have reached that point to which his better genius only appears as a distant, guiding sun.
Ludwig van BeethovenBarbra Streisand has accomplished so much, and Dustin Hoffman as well. They are down to earth and approachable. I admire that.
Kevin HartI use my celebrity status to inspire someone, to give them hope.
Mr. TIf you look at my job, my union card, it says ‚actor.‘ It don’t say nothing about celebrity, movie star, nothing like that, and that’s one thing that keeps me humble.
Mr. TThe fact that our task is exactly commensurate with our life gives it the appearance of being infinite.
Franz KafkaAnd God help Bruce Springsteen when they decide he’s no longer God… They’ll turn on him, and I hope he survives it.
John LennonI have no idols. I admire work, dedication and competence.
Ayrton SennaIf you can’t make it good, at least make it look good.
Bill GatesA real gentleman, even if he loses everything he owns, must show no emotion. Money must be so far beneath a gentleman that it is hardly worth troubling about.
Fyodor DostoevskyI kind of love Cole Miller.
Conor McGregorJoanne‘ is a progression for me. It was about going into the studio and forgetting that I was famous.
Lady GagaIt took Simone a long time to understand why people want Daddy’s autograph. I’d tell her, and my wife would tell her, too, ‚People see Daddy in the movies, and they are excited to meet him.‘ But she couldn’t really grasp it.
Dwayne JohnsonYou would think that a rock star being married to a supermodel would be one of the greatest things in the world. It is.
David BowieI was of the generation where most of the Disney princesses and female characters were not girls that I admired. They just weren’t characters I looked up to and identified with.
Angelina JolieNicki Minaj, I’m at MTV. I’m going to be honest with you: I love you. I like you. I want you; I want you to be mine. Only reason I’m not telling you this face to face is because I understand that you’re busy.
DJ KhaledAs a kid, even I knew everything about my favourite cricketers. I used to know everything possible. Now I see kids knowing about me. It feels good.
Virat KohliEverybody looks like clones and the only people you notice are my age. I don’t notice anybody unless they look great, and every now and again they do, and they are usually 70.
Vivienne WestwoodAppearance is something absolute, but reality is not that way – everything is interdependent, not absolute.
Dalai LamaI just love working with Eminem. He’s just one of my favorite rappers, and his lyrics – he’s a true poet, and I enjoy that about him.
RihannaI’m easy to look like, so there are lots and lots of Dolly look-alikes.
Dolly PartonPeople do not wish to appear foolish; to avoid the appearance of foolishness, they are willing to remain actually fools.
Alice WalkerYou can’t reverse fame. You can lose all the money, but you’ll never lose people knowing you.
J. ColeMy mother was always fascinated with the fact that I could rhyme so much stuff.
Dolly PartonI am odd-looking. I sometimes think I look like a funny Muppet.
Angelina JolieOur admiration of the antique is not admiration of the old, but of the natural.
Ralph Waldo EmersonI didn’t do anything at the Queen, whom I admire.
Vivienne WestwoodDuring my first years in the Sierra, I was ever calling on everybody within reach to admire them, but I found no one half warm enough until Emerson came. I had read his essays, and felt sure that of all men he would best interpret the sayings of these noble mountains and trees. Nor was my faith weakened when I met him in Yosemite.
John MuirAdmiration of the proletariat, like that of dams, power stations, and aeroplanes, is part of the ideology of the machine age.
Bertrand RussellBeauty is an outward gift, which is seldom despised, except by those to whom it has been refused.
Ralph Waldo EmersonI’ve never seen myself as a star. I never call myself a celebrity or a superstar, whatever.
Mr. TI love artists like Prince, who hold on to that element of mystery.
Bruno MarsAnybody that doesn’t like Cardi B a hater!
Nipsey HussleI have been very interested and intrigued and congratulatory toward President Bush and his paintings.
Jimmy CarterActors I admire? Ed Harris, or course, I think he’s terrific; because I know he always had to fight being what he looked like a lot, but I think he’s a terrific actor.
Anthony HopkinsI don’t care if people I admire criticize me because their opinion is valuable to me.
Karl LagerfeldOn a level plain, simple mounds look like hills; and the insipid flatness of our present bourgeoisie is to be measured by the altitude of its great intellects.
Karl MarxIf I heard someone else singing like me, I would buy it in a heartbeat.
Amy WinehouseI say this everywhere I go: I admire and respect Hillary. She has been a lawyer, a law professor, First Lady of Arkansas, First Lady of the United States, a U.S. Senator, Secretary of State.
Michelle ObamaWhen I say ‚Crush your enemy‘, I don’t literally mean it.
Robert GreeneLike so many American families, our families weren’t asking for much. They didn’t begrudge anyone else’s success or care that others had much more than they did… in fact, they admired it.
Michelle ObamaAnkles are nearly always neat and good-looking, but knees are nearly always not.
Dwight D. EisenhowerTina Turner is someone that I admire, because she made her strength feminine and sexy.
Beyonce Knowles
