About this Quote

This quote by Nick Mancuso speaks with the concept that popularity is ultimately a hollow pursuit. He suggests that even if he were to live forever, it would not be required for others to tell him that in order for him to buy a vehicle or a box of crackers. He implies that fame is not a needed part of success or happiness, and that it is eventually a sham. This quote speaks to the concept that true success and joy come from within, and that popularity is not an essential part of that formula.
