I don't want to be more famous than what I have right now. At least in that sense where people come up to me in the grocery store.

Most of my life I have played a lot of famous people but most of them were dead so you have a poetic license.

I actually don't feel famous.

My goal and my career is definitely not to be famous. That's a really horrible goal just to be famous for the sake of having fame.

I'm really in no danger of being perceived as a famous movie actor!

I became an actor and because I had success as an actor I became famous. I was acting for quite a while before I got famous television made me famous. I guess that it's television that is responsible for everybody's desire to be famous.

I had a very famous trainer tell me once 'You can usually train a wild animal but never tame a wild animal ever.' They are always going to be wild no matter what anybody says.

We had an interesting thing at that first dinner. It was prior to the availability of several new hotels in Los Angeles and we were more or less committed to the old Ambassador Hotel that has the famous Coconut Grove.

The first syndicating I tried was when two partners and I created a production company in 1952. We wanted to syndicate famous Bible stories and sell them for $25 a show.

I grew up being the girl who would always tune in to watch famous people talk about their careers how they handled scandals and mega fame. I'm trying to pick up tips.

I think success right now is not about how famous you are or how much you're getting paid but it's more about if you're steadily working and you're happy with what you're doing.

It's not a matter of becoming a superstar. Fame and money aren't the purpose of all this. No actor's going to say 'I don't want to be famous.' But the main purpose for doing what I'm doing is the passion in the work.

I wanted to be a rich famous rock-and-roll star in that order.

When you become famous you start getting invites to parties where there are famous athletes and famous rock stars politicians people who have tremendous power and affluence. It's not in my DNA but certainly I have been exposed to it.

I don't feel I was ever a 'famous' child actor. I was just a working actor who happened to be a kid. I was never really in a hit show until I was a teenager with West Wing playing First Daughter Zoey Bartlet. In a way that was my saving grace - not being a star on a hit show. It kept me working and kept me grounded.

I fear that in the end the famous debate among materialists idealists and dualists amounts to a merely verbal dispute that is more a matter for the linguist than for the speculative philosopher.

I've never been more famous than I was suddenly in 1986.
