    ““What have I earned for all that work,” I said,

    Where who has served the most is most defamed,
    The reputation of his lifetime lost
    Between the night and morning....””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “What is popularly called fame is nothing but an empty name and a legacy from paganism.”
