Most sane human beings who have managed to attain and retain fame each uses it to dramatically increase their name’s chances of being remembered until Jesus comes back, since their heart cannot do what they consciously or unconsciously lust for, that is to say, for it to beat until Jesus returns.

About This Quote

Most sane human beings who have managed to attain and retain fame each uses it to dramatically increase their name's chances of being remembered until Jesus comes back, since their heart cannot do what they consciously or unconsciously lust for, that is to say, for it to beat until Jesus returns. This quote means that those who have fame use it as a form of immortality. They want their name to be remembered long after they are gone. In this world, we can't have all the things we want, so we have to have some things that we want more than others. Fame is one of those things that a person would want a lot more than they would enjoy a simple life where everything they ate tasted good and everyone remembered them with a warm smile on their faces.
