More quotes by Stephen Fry
Sometimes there just isn't enough vomit in the world.
Stephen Fry

Stephen Fry
You are who you are when nobody's watching.
Stephen Fry

Stephen Fry
I feel I would love to close down for a number of years in some way and just be in the country making pork pies and chutneys and never have to poke my head out of the parapet.
Stephen Fry
Wine can be a better teacher than ink, and banter is often better than books
Stephen Fry
If you know someone who's depressed, please resolve never to ask them why. Depression isn't a straightforward response to a bad situation depression just is, like the weather.
Stephen Fry
It only takes a room of Americans for the English and Australians to realise how much we have in common.
Stephen Fry
If I were to believe in a god l would believe in gods. I think monotheism is the really ghastly thing. That is the absolutely staggering to me misapprehension.
Stephen Fry
The other man's arse is always cleaner!
Stephen Fry
A book is judged, not by its reference to life, but by its reference to other books.
Stephen Fry
Taste every fruit of every tree in the garden at least once. It is an insult to creation not to experience it fully. Temperance is wickedness.
Stephen Fry
