This isn't about your reputation. Our job right now is to make sure that there to ARE future historians.
Stephen L. Carter
Popular feeling is very often sentimental, muddle-headed, and eminently unsound, but it cannot be disregarded for all that.
Agatha Christie
Do not exchange your dignity for popularity.
Steve Maraboli
M. Proust was more severe than M. de Caillavet on Anatole France: "He was selfish and supercilious. He had read so much that he had left his heart in other people's books, and all that remained was dryness. One day I asked him how he came to know so much. He said, 'Not by being such a handsome young man as you. I wasn't in demand, and instead of going out I studied and learned'.
Céleste Albaret
There is no returning to the masses - once your forays into theory have borne you far enough away from them that you can perceive them and the benefits of being among them. the only return is through the process of disillusionment; one must cease to care about motivating the masses to be reunited with them. Likewise, there is no converting them - no matter how many people you come to join you at your outpost, from up close they will never look as impressive as the distant crowd.

Because it's kind of great, being an idea that everybody likes. But I could never be the idea to myself, not all the way. And Agloe is a place where a paper creation became real. A dot on the map became a real place, more real than the people who created the dot could never have imagined. I thought maybe the paper cutout of a girl could start becoming real here also. And it seemed like a way to tell that paper girl who cared about popularity and clothes and everything else: 'You are going to the paper towns. And you are never coming back.
John Green
So many people hate me and love me for the exact same reasons. This is all the proof I need that my opinion about myself is the only opinion I should ever care about.
Dan Pearce
Climbing towards fame, recognition and popularity is very much pleasant; but all its sweetness does not count even for a day of going down.
M.F. Moonzajer
So you want to be famous? You want to inspire large groups of people? You want to be recognized and appreciated by thousands or even millions? Stop trying to do it by speaking to the masses. Do it by speaking to individuals. If what you have is truly amazing and unique and worth sharing, individuals will share it. It is always about the individual, no matter how big you get. Remember that.
Dan Pearce
Your name still rings a bell when you say something good, not by causing catastrophe in a bid to sound more interesting.
Michael Bassey Johnson
Fame is the responsibility, the perennial discipline, the concubine who solicits and imbibes, bit by bit, the love, the relations, the serenity, and the soul, leaving behind the subaqueous plaudits that pinch to the core..
Himmilicious
[Regarding mathematics,] there are now few studies more generally recognized, for good reasons or bad, as profitable and praiseworthy. This may be true; indeed it is probable, since the sensational triumphs of Einstein, that stellar astronomy and atomic physics are the only sciences which stand higher in popular estimation.
G H Hardy
Dr. Lister, who treated the wounded Pres. Garfield, had been so stung by the medical establishment's reaction to his embrace of African-American doctors that he, in response, refused to do part from the status quo enough to considering using antiseptic techniques.
Candice Millard
My name had become a brand. (I have mixed emotions about that part of our (Christian media) industry, for sure.)
Jeremy Camp
The mere observation that something is popular, or even that it became so rapidly, is not sufficient to establish that it spread in a manner that resembles a virus. Popularity on the internet is driven by the size of the largest broadcast. Digital blockbusters are not about a million one-to-one moments as much as they are about a few one-to-one-million moments.
Derek Thompson
Being popular or not, having company or being alone, are not issues of concern for the developed soul.
Donna Goddard
For the ancient Greeks, who lacked our social media, the only way to achieve mass duplication of the details of one's life in the apprehension of others was to do something wondrously worth the telling. Our wondrous technologies might just save us all the personal bother. Kleos is a tweak away.
Rebecca Goldstein
He makes an effort to be more spontaneous on Facebook.
Sherry Turkle
Stop looking for the biggest crowd, and start looking for the right crowd.
Phil Cooke
The political nature of man made it highly unlikely that a society designed to meet regularly would remain peaceable. "The way to make friends quarrel is to pit them in disputation under the public eye," Jefferson said.
Jon Meacham
the ability to get on the air, which was crucial to any reporter’s career, grew precisely as the ability to analyze diminished.
David Halberstam
Pizza tastes better than broccoli and opinion tastes better than news.
Clay Johnson
In all sorts of markets—music, film, art, and politics—the future of popularity will be harder to predict as the broadcast power of radio and television democratizes and the channels of exposure grow.... The gatekeepers had their day. Now there are simply too many gates to keep.
Derek Thompson
She had in truth no abstract propensity to malice: she did not dislike Lily because the latter was brilliant and predominant, but because she thought that Lily disliked her. It is less mortifying to believe one's self unpopular than insignificant, and vanity prefers to assume that indifference is a latent form of unfriendliness.
Edith Wharton
A popular man arouses the jealousy of the powerful.
Frank Herbert
Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no
Cyril Connolly
JFK had a way of grabbing grandeur from mishap.
David Pietrusza
it's all a popularity contest, which unfortunately often has more to do with good looks rather than actual talent.
Andrew James Pritchard
A few caring kind quality friends are worth more than any amount of shallow popularity.
Rachel Hamilton
Don’t just make a name for yourself on earth; let your name be written in the book of life in Heaven, the seat of the Sovereign God!
Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
To the untrained eye, Ben had nothing, at least by the bizarre rules that governed high school. But really, Ben was one of the few who wasn't pretending, one of the few who was free.
Jay Bell
There is no point in expending good money on the pursuit of an engine that can power aircraft without propellers. What is wrong with airships anyway? They have borne mankind aloft for over a hundred relatively accident-free years and I see no reason to impugn their popularity...
Jasper Fforde
Personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Parents, teachers, and politicians should not be judged by their popularity.
Min Kim
Feeling harder to be oneself might be a curse of popularity.
Toba Beta
The saddest thing I have ever experienced is watching a fellow nerd I've known forever and befriended, trying to unnerdify themselves. It was painful because that great geeky personality I loved so much is hidden behind a plaster of trends, and he may end up with a girl who will never understand him.
Melanie Kay Taylor
So here's the deal: I speak up in class, I get sent to office. Megan speaks up in class, she's a "strong, assertive model student."I post a few flyers saying that the vending machines on school property are a sign that our school has sold out to corporate-industrial establishment, I get (what else?) Saturday detention. Megan starts a campaign to serve local foods in the lunchroom (oh, and can we please maybe get rid of the soda machines?) and the local newspaper does a write-up about her.She's like me, only not. Not like me at all. She's the golden girl and I'm...tarnished. So forgive me if I hate her a little.
Katie Alender
High School: Oh, man. This is where boys and girls go from tweens to teens and become complicated and cruel. Girls play sick mind games; boys try to pull each other's penises off and throw them in the bushes. If you can, buy the most expensive jeans in a two-hundred-mile radius of your town and wear them on your first day. If anyone asks how you could afford them say that your father is the president of Ashton Kutcher. When they are like, 'Ashton Kutcher has a president?' answer, 'Yes.' Everyone will be in awe of you and you won't have to go through a lot of pain and cat fights.
Eugene Mirman
Pioneering is never done in front of cheerleaders urging on a roaring grandstand of popular approval.
George Takei
A blind pursuit of cheap popularity has nothing to do with revolu
Nelson Mandela
When a president's popularity grows, the he is doing wrong things.
Debasish Mridha
Despite the huge crowd, He speaks to His disciples as though no one else is there.
Roma Downey
He was perceived to be intellectually promiscuous, a little too eager to please all groups.
David Halberstam
Winnie the Pooh finds comfort in counting his pots of honey, and Rabbit finds comfort in knowing where his relations are – even if he doesn't need them at the moment.
A.A. Milne
It'd be great to be so famous that if I murder someone, I will never, ever, ever serve any jail time, even if it's totally obvious to everyone that I did it.
Mindy Kaling
I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.
William S Burroughs
The repentance we are called to is about choosing one audience over another.
Donald Miller
A sunshine can bring opportunities for a person's life and you should never be disappointed if it shines on you because if you disregard it, you will miss the moment of great luck.
Saaif Alam
Sense isn’t democratic. A senseless opinion that’s advocated by 'the majority' is still senseless.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Americans talked about voters the same way Russians talked about Stalin. They had to be obeyed.
Ken Follett
Most consumers are simultaneously neophilic, curious to discover new things, and deeply neophobic, afraid of anything that is too new. The best hit makers are gifted at creating moments of meaning by marrying new and old, anxiety and understanding. They are architects of familiar surprises.
Derek Thompson
Teachers knew every one of the students, their secrets, their grades, their home situations. And all the students knew the teachers. It was like teachers were people who finally were the most popular at school.
Victoria Kahler
Trying to become something in a world where everyone wants to become something is a thing that needs God's programming.
Michael Bassey Johnson
Churchill kept perspective on the crowds that gathered to hear him speak by conceding they would be twice as big if gathered to see him hanged.
Winston S. Churchill
The Jesus Movement had survived the fad phase and was settling down for the long haul.
