Fame Is A Very Unnatural Human Condition

One of the most fascinating quotes in the book Comic Genius; Portraits of Funny People is this one by Chevy Chase…

The best comedy I ever did was when people didn’t know who I was.

“Fame is a very unnatural human condition. When you stop to realize that Abraham Lincoln was probably never seen by more than 400 people in a single evening, and that I can enter over 40 million homes in a single evening due to the power of television, you have to admit the situation is not normal.”
