“Those of us who have acquired fame are recipients of much love and respect, and I have begun to realize that this show of affection is worthwhile and genuine and becomes problematic only when it degenerates into a personality cult... you have to act like a bishop, let people kiss your hand, and then make sure that the intended offering is forwarded to the right address.”

Hermann Hesse 1877 – 1962 CE
from Soul of the Age
