Stephen Fry Quotes

Jo Wood Was Sound, Sound As A Bell. Solid, Cynical, Amused And Occasionally Amusing, He Did Not Appear To Be Very Intelligent, And Unlike Richard Fawcett And Me, Seemed Uninterested In Words, Ideas And The World. But One Day He Said To Me:
'I've Got It Now. It's Reading Isn't It?'
'I'm Sorry?'
'You Read A Lot, Don't You? That's Where It All Comes From. Reading. Yeah, Reading.'
The Next Time I Saw Him He Had A Herman Hesse Novel In His Hands. I Never Saw Him Again Without A Book Somewhere On His Person. When I Heard, Some Years Later, That He Had Got Into Cambridge I Thought To Myself, I Know How That Happened. He Decided One Day To Read.
