Eminem Quotes:
On yearning less fame: "I would take it back to where I made a comfortable living. To where I would just make music, have people appreciate it, even if it's a few people who appreciate it, and be able to walk to a mall, walk to a store."

On fame: "When you get fame and fortune and you make something of your life and become successful ... But (there is a) whole new slew of problems that I never expected that come along with it."

On women: "Do they truly, genuinely love me for me? The reason they're approaching me is because I'm Eminem. And I will never be able to get over that insecurity ... Does this person care about me for me, or is it too late in the game now? Because I have money, I have fame, and I'm who I am."

Asked if he had considered dating a fellow-celebrity: "Tried that, that didn't work. I've dated a few famous women and gone that route thinking that would work, and they ended up being crazier than I am."

Asked if his audience demographic has shifted, Eminem, who reportedly loathes being compared to Elvis, responded: "It used to range from 10 years old to 25. Now it seems to be from 5 years old to 55."

"It'd be stupid for me to sit here and say that there aren't kids who took up to me, but my responsibility is not to them. I'm not a baby sitter."

"Every now and then 1 motherf***er comes along and now that motherf***er happens to be me."

"Don't do drugs, don't have unprotected sex, don't be violent. Leave that to me.?
