About this Quote

Hedy Lamarr's quote speaks to the trouble of dating when you are a star. She discovered that when she went on dates with stars, the discussions were mainly about their work and the industry. This became laborious and unfulfilling for her, so she started to limit her dating options to individuals who were not in the entertainment industry. This permitted her to have more meaningful conversations and to discover more satisfying relationships. Her quote also speaks with the challenges of being a celeb, as it can be tough to discover authentic connections with people when you are continuously in the public eye. Lamarr's quote is a suggestion that fame does not always bring joy, which it can be hard to find significant relationships when you are a celebrity.
