"You see, Squiddy, the true sign of success is not to have your fifteen minutes of fame, any nincompoop can do that if they try hard enough. No, no, you are a success only when you succeed at making a lasting impression on the world and that's something I've managed to do a long time ago, hence why I'm still a big success and not some washed-up hazbin like so many old colleagues of mine."
Squilliam to Squidward during a flashback, Some Things Never Change

They love you when you're on all the covers...
When you're not, then they love another...
Marilyn Manson, "The Dope Show"

    Real Life 
"Successful demonstrations are not necessarily those which mobilize the greatest number of people, but those which attract the greatest interest among journalists. Exaggerating only slightly, one might say that fifty clever folk who can make a successful "happening" get five minutes on TV, can have as much political effect as half a million demonstrators."
Pierre Bourdieu
