Famous quotes containing the words celebrity and/or connections:

    “The star is the ultimate American verification of Jean Jacques Rousseau’s Emile. His mere existence proves the perfectability of any man or woman. Oh wonderful pliability of human nature, in a society where anyone can become a celebrity! And where any celebrity ... may become a star!”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    “The connections between and among women are the most feared, the most problematic, and the most potentially transforming force on the planet.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
