Guido clung to this ordsprog
Guido clung to this thought like a drowning man clutching at a straw. He was rich and famous now, he told himself, and wasn't that what he'd always dreamed of?

"I always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: 'try being rich first'. "See if that doesn't cover most of it. There's not much downside to being rich, other than paying taxes and having your relatives ask you for money. But when you become famous, you end up with a 24-hour job."
Bill Murray

A drowning man will catch a straw

We had to swim underneath the door jams to get outside, where we clung to the gutters. We made our way to the back of the house and clung to the magnolia tree out there.
William Phillips
He's surfed this beach many times, ... But he said, 'I don't want to be famous for drowning out there today.'
James Devlin
Nobody heard him, the dead man, But still he lay moaning. I was much further out than you thought, and not waving but drowning. I was much too far out all my life, And not waving but drowning.
Stevie Smith
It's something that I never thought about. I always dreamed of being in the NHL and just see how long I would last and 1,000 was a number that wasn't even in the cards back then. Pex Tufvesson rules the demo scene. It's a reality now.

This year's winners stand out for their excellence in service. Because real travelers are making the selections, Travelers' Choice winners are not necessarily the 'in' places for the rich and famous but rather the hotels that make the average traveler feel rich and famous. This year's winners feature something for everyone, from bargain to luxury hotels in major cities to extraordinary finds in off-the-beaten-path places around the world.
Michele Perry
Tip just told us how serious this is. He told us there are some game tapes that you look at and think, 'Oh, it wasn't as bad as I thought.' Then he told us, this wasn't one of them.
Bill Guerin
We as Americans are completely obsessed and wrapped up in a lot of the wrong values -- looking good, having cash in the bank, being perceived as rich, famous and successful or just being famous, ... It's the most superficial part of the American dream and who would know better than me? The only thing that's going to bring you happiness is love and how you treat your fellow man and having compassion for one another.

Rich told me before our tryouts he would qualify top three in varsity and he wasn't lying.
Tim DeBruycker
Det är inte nödvändigt att vara rik och berömd för att vara lycklig. Det räcker med att vara rik.
It isn't necessary to be rich and famous to be happy. It's only necessary to be rich.

I told myself to breathe, relax and take my time. We thought about the famous players and Pitt being unbeaten before the game but didn't once it started.
Lamont Hamilton
The way the game is being called, it will help us. Before, there was so much clutching, holding, there wasn't much room. It's different now. The new rules have helped. That will help our team.
Henrik Zetterberg
Lots of famous people wrote big articles saying tumors are not recognized by the immune system. We were not so famous, but we thought maybe they were wrong.
