"People think celebrities don't have to worry about human things like sickness and death and rent. It's like you've traveled to this Land of Celebrity, this other country. They want you to tell about what you saw"

- David Duchovny

About this Quote

This quote by David Duchovny speaks to the concept that celebs are typically viewed as living in a different world, one where they do not need to fret about the exact same human issues that the rest of us do. This "Land of Celebrity" is a location where they are exempt from the battles of daily life, and people anticipate them to be able to provide insight into this alternate reality. However, this is not the case. Celebs are still human, and they still need to handle the exact same concerns that the rest of us do, such as sickness, death, and rent. The quote works as a reminder that celebs are not exempt from the truths of life, and that they need to not be anticipated to provide a look into a world that does not exist.
