A pinch of notoriety will do.

Even though Mary Wollstonecraft had little or no presence in history or literature curricula as recently as a generation ago, she has never exactly been a minor figure. Some, certainly, have wished her so. A dauntless advocate of political reform, Wollstonecraft was one of the first to vindicate the "rights of man," but in her own — brief — lifetime and ever since, she achieved notoriety principally for her championship of women's rights. And while some of this notoriety took the particular form of scandal of the sort that often attends women directly involved in public affairs, some of it she directly sought in her writing and in her conduct. Controversy always inspired Wollstonecraft, always sharpened her sense of purpose.
Mary Wollstonecraft
Whatever pretended pessimists in search of notoriety may say, most people are naturally kind, at heart.
James Branch Cabell
I gotta go pinch off a norbit.
Bill Allred
Where there's smoke, they pinch back.
Anonymous
He's such a cobweb, a pinch would annihilate him.
