More quotes by 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
But an Adrian also knew that an Adrian's lies were real: they were lived and felt and acted out as thoroughly as another man's truths - if other men had truths - and he believed it possible that this last lie might see him through to the grave.
Stephen Fry
Many people would no more think of entering journalism than the sewage business - which at least does us all some good.
Stephen Fry
We always make the mistake, the fatal mistake in the case of military people, of imagining that each war will be a kind of version of the one that happened previously.
Stephen Fry
I'm fat because I'm greedy, and if my mind is fat it's because I'm curious.
Stephen Fry
Naturally I've known girlies form an attachment to the younger male before now, but in the tennis score of the bedroom most girls in my experience would rather Love Thirty or Love Forty than Love Fifteen. Men, of course, are a whole other issue they start at Love All and stay there until they're dragged from the court
Stephen Fry
Life, that can shower you with so much splendour, is unremittingly cruel to those who have given up.
Stephen Fry
Somehow, as a writer, you tend to use words to paper over structural cracks.
Stephen Fry
Music takes me to places of illimitable sensual and insensate joy, accessing points of ecstasy that no angelic lover could ever locate, or plunging me into gibbering weeping hells of pain that no torturer could ever devise.
Stephen Fry
There's nothing worse than the British in one of their fits of morality.
Stephen Fry
My general view is that best actor best suited to role should get the job. Obviously when it comes to colour and issues of ethnicity the choice is clear. But I do not believe you have to be transgender or have undergone sex reassignment surgery to be able play a character who has.Acting is acting after all.
Stephen Fry
Compromise is a stalling between two fools.
Stephen Fry
I now accept that it is looking increasingly likely that Tiger Woods is, in fact, straight.
Stephen Fry
Just as it is the love of money that is the root of all evil, it is the belief in shamefulness that is the root of all misery.
Stephen Fry
That one can love another of the same gender, that is what the homophobe really cannot stand.
Stephen Fry
You can't reason yourself back into cheerfulness any more than you can reason yourself into an extra six inches in height.
Stephen Fry
Life is sometimes novel-shaped, mocking the efforts of those authors who, in an effort to make their novels life-shaped, spurn the easy symmetry and cheap resonance of reality.
Stephen Fry
Everything had been based on a kind of certainty, a sense of man at the center of things, a sense of order and hierarchy. And suddenly, almost simultaneously, extraordinary discoveries are made.
Stephen Fry
I think Eros should be dirty. In Greek legend, as I'm sure you are aware, he fell in love with the minor deity Psyche. It was the Greek way of saying that, in spite of what it may believe, Love pursues the Soul, not the body the Erotic desires the Psychic. If Love was clean and wholesome he wouldn't lust after Psyche.

How can one not be fond of something that the Daily Mail despises?
