.....What rage for fame attends both great and small!
.....Better be damned than mentioned not at all!
..........— Peter Pindar (né John Wolcot) (1738-1819), English poet, satirist. To the Royal Academicians (1782-1785).
@KennyC & BenG - really great quotes! BenG -- yours reminds me of the line from the old Animals song, We Gotta Get out of This Place: "See my daddy in bed a-dyin' -- see his hair been turnin' gray -- he's been workin' and slavin' his life away..."
