I could go on to speak of sanity as compared with insanity, decency as compared with vandalism, friendship as compared with rabies.
Being compared to the greatest-ever safety is pretty ridiculous. I continue to work toward that, but I'm not there and I know that.
Being compared to Biggie, that's the best feeling a rapper could have
I don't mind being compared to Whitney (Houston), there are people miles worse to be compared to.

I've been compared to so many people - Streisand, Celine - it doesn't bother me. Why worry about being compared to the best?
Being a kind, emperor, or president is mighty small potatoes compared to being a mother. Commanding an army is little more than sweeping a street compared with training a boy or girl. The mother of Moses did more for the world than all the kinds that Egypt ever had. Oh, you wait until you reach the mountains of eternity, then read the mothers' names in God's Hall of Fame.
The whole consideration of - ... am I being compared as such and such's grandson and son - that was minuscule compared to the problems I was having just working... I didn't have time to start worrying about who I was in the eyes of the public.
You don't see guys being compared with other guys, you base people on your roots in racing. You would think I'd get more compared with people who do dirt racing.
Being compared to such a player like Pirlo, a guy who has won everything in his career, that's very important for me. I'm very happy to be compared to Andrea.
Henry Ford made a lot of money making cars at one time, but that was a small advantage to him compared to the benefit to millions of people who for the first time in their lives were emancipated from common public carriers and could live where they wanted, move at the hours they wanted, to the places they wanted. Ford collected a billion bucks, but that was peanuts compared to the benefits.
Honestly, I wish I could be a part of all the remakes of my father's films. But on second thought, I wouldn't want to be a part of any. The thought of being compared to him is unnerving. I'd rather do my films than live in the fear of living up to his standards.
I have been compared with Antonio Conte and it is an honour to be compared with him. I would love to enjoy the same success he has had as a coach.
The media has been nice to me so far, but if I get compared to Channing one more time I'm taking it as a compliment, but it is crazy how many times people have compared me to him. I don't know if 'Magic Mike' is in my future, but we'll see.

You can' t help being a musician because you've grown up with music, yet being one means being compared to your dad and being slated for it. But I really don't have the ambitions of most people going into the industry.
