Varun Sharma Quotes

I actually don't know anyone who wants to be famous for fame's sake, at least not anyone I respect. But you need to have a certain amount of power in order to be able to do what you want.

The game is the ultimate significance to me because it is so important to a lot of people. It has left a mark on our culture to be voted as one of the best to ever play.

Fame is easy to acquire; impact is much more difficult.

Fame is something I think happens as a result of trying to do good work. If you're trying to be famous, your work usually suffers.

I think we all want to be remembered for what we did.

You know you've made your mark when you're on the cover of a videogame.

It just feels good to know the work I did, people like it and love it - and continue to like and love it. It makes me feel real good that, after 20 years, 'Regulate' is still in heavy rotation all over the United States and all over the world.

You get so tired of having your work die. I just wanted to make something that people would actually use.

I'm essentially a humorist and, I think, a pretty good one. I've known all along that 'My Friend Dahmer' is the one book I'll be most known for, and in a way, that's a drag, as it's nothing like the rest of the work I've done or will do moving forward. But the way I figure, it's better to have a best-known work than not to have one at all.

I'm not doing this to be a pop star. I've had plenty of money and attention. I'm doing it for credibility.

There are artists, true performers that have come before me who have been a big inspiration to me. I hope I do the same for others.

You can get rich or famous by doing the same thing.

Like every artist that comes out, you want to make a mark; you want to be a household name and you want to be someone that people are going to look back in ten years/fifteen years' time and go, 'I love this guy Olly Murs. He was brilliant back in the day; he was someone I really, really liked.'

Wherever I go, people still shout out: 'Hey, hey, we're The Monkees.' And I never tire of that.

All fame ever does for you is get attention for the work you really want to do.

People are looking for fame or a focus, and I can't provide that.

It's not whether you win or lose, it's how many people remember you when you die.

People named their kids after me!
