Variant: People feel fame gives them some kind of privilege to walk up to you and say anything to you, of any kind of nature — and it won't hurt your feelings — like it's happening to your clothing.
As quoted in Ms. magazine (August 1972) p. 40

They feel fame gives them some kind of privilege to walk up to you and say anything to you, of any kind of nature — and it won't hurt your feelings — like it's happening to your clothes not you.

I think to love bravely is the best and accept — as much as one can bear.
“she was a girl who knew how to be happy even when she was sad”
Variante: She was a girl who knew how to be happy even when she was sad. And that’s important—you know
