Stephen Fry Quotes

Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.

If you create your life with love, your dream becomes a masterpiece of art.

Doing something new and challenging. It can be anything from starting a business to playing a sport. Seeing a great concert, looking at extraordinary art, or being in nature. More than anything, it's my son's smile and love that makes me light up!

I love to go to the studio and stay there 10 or 12 hours a day. I love it. What is it? I don't know. It's life.

I just love the world of photography.

I think I've found a purpose in acting; it's something I truly love and truly enjoy. It makes me happy. It makes me understand more about life, in front of the camera, than what I'm living beyond the camera.

I think that film combines almost every element that makes human life worth living.

So as long as I can do the music or create, I'll feel fine.

What love is to man, music is to the arts and to mankind.
