More quotes by Stephen Fry
Families where there is not much laughter I think are signs of some sort of dysfunctionality or sickness.
Stephen Fry
How to seperate the humiliation from the loss, that's the catch. You can never be sure if what tortures you is the pain of being without someone you love or the embarrassment of admitting that you have been rejected.
Stephen Fry
Life, that can shower you with so much splendour, is unremittingly cruel to those who have given up.
Stephen Fry
No adolescent ever wants to be understood, which is why they complain about being misunderstood all the time.
Stephen Fry
It's rather splendid to think of all those great men and women who appear to have presented symptoms that allow us to describe them as bipolar. Whether it's Hemingway, Van Gogh... Robert Schumann has been mentioned... Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Plath... some of them with rather grim ends.
Stephen Fry
I get an urge, like a pregnant elephant, to go away and give birth to a book.
Stephen Fry
I've always had great respect for Paddington because he is amusingly English and eccentric. He is a great British institution and my generation grew up with the books and then Michael Horden's animations.
Stephen Fry
We don't stop talking about how the world might be better just because we have no chance of making it to Prime Minister. We are all politicians. We are all artists. In an open society everything the mind and hands can achieve is our birthright. It is up to us to claim it.
Stephen Fry
There are some things I don't like, about which I think, well, that's me. But coriander is a giant hoax perpetrated by a perverted society.
Stephen Fry
To be human and to be adult means constantly to be in the grip of opposing emotions, to have daily to reconcile apparently conflicting tensions. I want this, but need that. I cherish this, but I adore its opposite too.
Stephen Fry
That's alright, said Hugo. I've got some wine Which was about all he seemed to have. He poured out two mugfuls. Very nice, said Adrian, sipping appreciatively. I wonder how they got the cat to sit on the bottle. It's cheap, that's the main thing.
Stephen Fry
I think I'm most nervous about revealing how nervous I have always been. People think me calm, confident, poised. Inside I'm a jelly.
Stephen Fry
A film star is a kind of public monument, and everyone's staring at them, and they've kind of got railings around them, and they're rather miserable most of the time.
Stephen Fry
This is the point. One technology doesn't replace another, it complements. Books are no more threatened by Kindle than stairs by elevators.
Stephen Fry
I think we have all experienced passion that is not in any sense reasonable.
Stephen Fry
Love in all eight tones and all five semitones of the word's full octave.
Stephen Fry
Why should I be depressed? I've got enough money. I've got a job. People like me. There is no to be depressed. That's at stupid as saying there is no reason to have asthma or there is no reason to have the measles. You know you've got it. It's there. It's not about reason.
Stephen Fry
I am magnificently prepared for the long littleness of life. There is diddley-squat for me to look forward to. Zilch, zero, zip-all, sweet lipperty-pipperty nothing. The only thought that will give me the energy to carry on is that someone has a life which would be diminished by my departure from it.
Stephen Fry
In a dung heap, even a plastic bead can gleam like a sapphire.
Stephen Fry
People who can change and change again are so much more reliable and happier than those who can’t
Stephen Fry
