More quotes by Stephen Fry
It's now very common to hear people say 'I'm rather offended by that'.
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
Mankind can live free in a society hemmed in by laws, but we have yet to find a historical example of mankind living free in lawless anarchy.
Stephen Fry
Hell, I am young. I am free. My teeth are clean. The sun shines. To hell with everything else
Stephen Fry
The performance of buggery is no more inevitable a part of homosexuality than an orange syllabub is an inevitable part of a dinner: some may clamour for it and instantly demand a second helping, some are not interested, some decide they will try it once and then instantly vomit.
Stephen Fry
If you think you're going to have an eternity in which you can talk to Mozart and Chopin and Schopenhauer on a cloud and learn stuff and you know really get to grips with knowledge and understanding and so you won't bother now, I think it's a terrible, a terrible mistake.
Stephen Fry
There's nothing worse than the British in one of their fits of morality.
Stephen Fry
I was born Mary Patterson, but then I married and naturally took my husband's name, so now I'm Neil Patterson.
Stephen Fry
One of the reasons I love the online world is that although that exists in abundance you can choose absolutely which part of the online world you want to live in. You can make your own kingdom in that sense.
Stephen Fry
Those who rule the world get so little opportunity to run about and laugh and play in it.
Stephen Fry
Most of the problem I see amongst friends and I've experienced amongst myself is when people haven't accommodated the inequality that they want, they haven't understood that their partner wants to give more love and receive less or they haven't understood that their partner wants to receive more, but sort of give less.
Stephen Fry
I'm afraid I was very much the traditionalist. I went down on one knee and dictated a proposal which my secretary faxed over straight away.
Stephen Fry
Money no longer has any meaning. Civilization is coming to an end. If not the destruction of the world, it's an endless stalemate.
Stephen Fry
The Gay News critic wrote that I 'carried the lilt of the Irish without the brogue'.
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
That one can love another of the same gender, that is what the homophobe really cannot stand.
Stephen Fry
We hold on STEVE's still smiling face as MICHAEL passes by. STEVE's eyes follow MICHAEL out of the room and then the smile disappears. It is replaced by a look of hunger and desolation.
Stephen Fry
It is easy to forget that the most important aspect of comedy, after all, its great saving grace, is its ambiguity. You can simultaneously laugh at a situation, and take it seriously.
Stephen Fry
Cynical is the name we give those we fear may be laughing at us.
Stephen Fry
Things are always worse in the steady watches of the night.
Stephen Fry
