Guys get voted into the Hall of Fame who don't belong, who lack the numbers. I'm very upset at the Hall of Fame for that. It's not fair to the people who went in early.
I have no regard for that kind of ceremony. I just don't think they know what they're doing. When you see who wins those things-or who doesn't win them-you can see how meaningless this Oscar thing is.
The shame that arises from praise which we do not deserve often makes us do things we should otherwise never have attempted.
People keep saying Aldo deserves this, he deserves that - how the hell do you deserve something when you pulled out of all these events?
Favor and honor sometimes fall more fitly on those who do not desire them.
I was in Sweden for 10 days. They put me on the front page of the daily papers eight days in a row. I did nothing to warrant any of the attention. It was ridiculous.
There's a lot of mediocrity being celebrated, and a lot of wonderful stuff being ignored or discouraged.
Don't act like you've arrived when you're just receiving the invitation.
Everything was a lot more challenging for me because of who my brother was. If I were in the film, someone would had said that I got the part because Eddie's in the film. If I wrote a script, folks would say that I didn't really write that: that Eddie did and I threw my name on it.
I've become invested with this symbolic power. It really does transcend what I'm actually doing and what I actually deserve.
I don't like being a celebrity, really... Some people get greater praise than they deserve because they have had exposure in the media. I don't think I agree with that at all.
People cried nepotism every time I was on the field. But I played for a lot of coaches before I played for my father, and I started for everybody. He wasn't the first person who all the sudden put me in the starting lineup.
First, I was doing the singing, and because I was Hulk Hogan's daughter, everyone was like, 'Oh, it's handed to her. Oh, she looks like a wrestler herself.'
Undeserved praise causes more pangs of conscience later than undeserved blame, but probably only for this reason, that our power of judgment are more completely exposed by being over praised than by being unjustly underestimated.
I think what drove me insane for a long time is feeling like I hadn't earned most of what I achieved because it came so fast.
