of course I would expect it, that's why I write books and leave documents all over the place. As a Philosopher, I can see the following being the most read books in history but sadly none of mine are amongst them.
1) Cinderella
2) Sleeping Beauty
3) Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
4) The Bible
5) The Koran
As you can see, I am of no real historical interest as humans prefer to read "Fairy Tales" rather than any serious subject. LOL

An unexamined life is not a life worth living. One must be living a life to examine it. Peering into the future two thousand years later was beyond my examination.

No.
He didn't have time for it,he had to be concentrate on the moment and on the problem, so he could resolve it. He couldn't possibly be distracted by thoughts of fame!
