Some people think it is very difficult to be famous, I mean in good sense, but it seems to me that already famous people are always thinking of how not to be known to other people.

if all you want is fame, not money, recognition of your talent, respect etc, it's extremely easy to achieve:just commit some horrible crime; murder / rape / cannibalism on a large scale / to loved ones / very vulnerable people etc. you will become famous.so when people tell me their ambition is fame, i think they are actually seeking something else.

Ordinary world -this is where we live. For those who are extremely talented, it is very easy to be famous for something favourable. So naturally they started thinking of how not to be famous since it is the one that requires them to make an effort. On the other hands, some people who are less talented still feel it's paramount for them to be notorious -don't know how to achieve something meaningful, instead they think if they commit some wrondoing upon others who are famous, that makes him automatically notorious. That's the very reason why already famous people are so eager not to be in public.
