What's sad is that there is an addictive quality to that to believing your own hype to allowing yourself to become validated by others and no longer by yourself. That's the danger of celebrity.

I mean if you have to wake up in the morning to be validated by the editorial page of the New York Times you got a pretty sorry existence.

A man's friendships are like his will invalidated by marriage - but they are also no less invalidated by the marriage of his friends.

The Supreme Court of the United States... has validated the Nazi method of execution in... concentration camps starving them to death.
