"L'inconvénient de ma célébrité est que je ne peux aller nulle part dans le monde sans être reconnu. Il ne suffit pas que je porte des lunettes de soleil foncées et une perruque. Le fauteuil roulant me trahit."

Stephen Hawking

Simplified Meaning:

Being famous means people recognize you wherever you go. Even if you try to hide by wearing sunglasses or a disguise, it's not enough. For instance, think about Stephen Hawking, a well-known scientist who used a wheelchair. Even if he wore a hat or a wig, people would still know it’s him because of the wheelchair. This shows that fame can make it hard to blend in or have privacy in public. It’s like wanting to go to a park and relax but always having people come up to you because they know who you are. It can be tiring and make you miss having a normal life.
