I'm shy, paranoid, whatever word you want to use. I hate fame. I've done everything I can to avoid it.
I love my work, but I don't like being in the spotlight. I was never going to be an actor, that's for sure.
that you seemed almost as fearful of notice and praise as other women were of neglect. (Edmund to Fanny)
I'm kind of a low-key guy. The spotlight doesn't suit me. I'm more of a side dish--cole slaw or French fries or a Wham! backup singer.
I'm particularly weird because I don't even like being looked at.
I never really wanted to be a star. I didn't like entering a room with all eyes on me. I still don't really like the attention of a birthday party.
I don't want my personal life to change. I don't understand why people strive for fame. I know it's ironic for me to be saying this, but this will be the last one I do.
I’ve always hated being looked at.
I'll privily away; I love the people, But do not like to stage me to their eyes; Though it do well, I do not relish well Their loud applause and aves vehement, Nor do I think the man of safe discretion That does not affect it.
