Stephen Fry’s 5 most popular quotes

  • People who can change and change again are so much more reliable and happier than those who can’t.
  • The only reason people do not know much is because they do not care to know. They are incurious. Incuriousity is the oddest and most foolish failing there is.
  • It is the useless things that make life worth living and that make life dangerous too: wine, love, art, beauty. Without them life is safe, but not worth bothering with.
  • Knowing what I now know I would never have done anything so fatuous; but then I never would have known what I know now had I not.
  • We are not nouns, we are verbs. I am not a thing – an actor, a writer – I am a person who does things – I write, I act – and I never know what I’m going to do next. I think you can be imprisoned if you think of yourself as a noun.
