The most not-knighted man who deserves a knighthood I have ever seen and heard! That bit about getting exactly what is the opposite of what you want as a method of learning is genius! Stephen Fry has such genius, his voice is so eloquent and articulate, and he just makes me feel at ease in life hearing him communicate. A superb human!
There is an order far higher than knighthood in the uk and they are the ones that were offered a knighthood and turned it down…it is a truly impressive list. Google it.
Thank you for compiling this. (Not sure compiling is the right word!) I've been having a bit of a Stephen Fry binge recently and this is one I've not seen before!
I never had a good answer when my family would say I was crazy for wanting to be a teacher. (almost done with my degree) "You'll never get rich." "Oh god the kids will be horrible and the parent will be worse..." "Are you sure you know English well enough to even be a teacher?" That last one always ruffles my feathers lol, but in spite of all the negative comments, I trudged on, and hearing Mr. Fry say that work is more fun than fun if you're doing what you love hits home. I'm content to endure the very worst parents and help the slowest child if it means I get to be in a classroom. Covid not withstanding.
Because you're empty too like he is. "The humanist view of the meaning of life is different. Humanists do not see that there is any obvious purpose to the universe, but that it is a natural phenomenon with no design behind it. Meaning is not something out there, waiting to be discovered, but something we create in our own lives." Stephen Fry Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space, and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God. Only mindless people believe Fry.
Absolutely right. Will to listen = mindlessness. No truer word has been spoken, and don't you forget it. Me, I don't listen to anyone, and I try my hardest not to believe anything. Now that's the true path to wisdom, that's how I maintain my purity. And anyone who has anything to add to that can shut up ahead of time - you're nout but an empty vessel.
He predicted the Fb’s hurtful affect of the social Media algorithm 9 years ago. “Learn something opposite to what you know!” Unlike fb now they recommend post that solidify your current believe. Which cause extreme divisions. And does not listen to the other side. Amazing. Will do something different now.
When I began secondary school, there was a children's road safety campaign on TV which had the slogan "Stop, Look, Listen, Think." My English teacher told us we should apply the same principle to what we see, hear and read in the news. I've been doing it for 50 years now, and I'm eternally grateful to that English teacher to this day.
The comment about being too absorbed with oneself hits a but close to home for me, I am still way too self-absorbed. But somehow, comming from this wonderful human being, it just moves me to do better.
I saw this video years ago and hearing what he said about self pity, changed my life and the direction it has taken and continues to take. I am not exaggerating when I say it could even have saved my life.
Other idea is doing things different and unpredictable.clothing is a point. Closet order. The furniter positioning. Just pick the shirt thats the lowest of the staple in the closet, freshly washed on top, you never know what you will pick next morning, no sorting allowed, just fresh on top, pick from the bottom. The reactions with other people is goldenly diffrent just by the way you clothed. Its funny to play with, you will wear stuff that you once found cool or whatever but never weard for years😊
That's what I thought about conspiracy theories, if I played a role, or masterminded something brilliant, my immediate instinct is to boast about it "Look what I did! Muaahahaha!" Keeping it a secret would be painful.

I think Stephen Fry makes for the world's greatest professor. Ever.
Don't think he'll want one to be fair
@@bossman5370 Declining knighthood is more common than most realize, but nevertheless, it is still unusual.
There is an order far higher than knighthood in the uk and they are the ones that were offered a knighthood and turned it down…it is a truly impressive list. Google it.
His knowledge & wisdom are breathtaking, and the beautiful way he communicates this makes Stephen one of the most remarkable people of this world imo.
"I'm sure it's terrible for you, dear. But shut up!" Love it. Absolutely love it.
So very true. Instead of complaining , look at 3rd world countries and people will realize how fortune they really are.

I've been having a bit of a Stephen Fry binge recently and this is one I've not seen before!
Once again, Stephen Fry leads me gently out of the dense mental fog that is my routine life, and into the light of clear thinking.

Hopefully Mr Fry chooses to scroll down and read this one.. Lovely.
Good luck!! There’s a few people who were just born to be teachers. You sound like one of them. And then, it’s a dream job. Anything can be
You sound like a wonderful teacher.
@@Renegade668 those people who writes comments

I had a white 1961 P1800 in college in Santa Bárbara in the late 60s. I loved it it and drove it up and down the West Coast.
You are so wise. If only we could know and believe what you are saying when we were younger. A calèche.
Could listen for hours when this man speaks

Pleeease listen to meeeee!

Don't reckon he's grasped the nature of the complaints people make, concerning the targeted vicious behaviour of ill jealous individuals.
That's what I thought about conspiracy theories, if I played a role, or masterminded something brilliant, my immediate instinct is to boast about it "Look what I did! Muaahahaha!"

He looks so much better with longer hair!
