+The Rubin Report: Major credit goes to you Dave, for doing your job as an interviewer. You let your guest speak. You didn't make it about you, as much as about drawing responses from Fry. That's what we wanted to see. And you did a damn good job mate :D

Stephen Fry is a gift to humanity. I wouldn’t imagine that I’d always agree with him but my god I’d love to share a beer and a laugh with him.

Stephen Fry is a perfect example that there is never an excuse to forget one's manners.
Such a proper English gentleman, hats off to him.

"Life is complicated, and no one wants to believe it's complicated." True words Stephen Fry. True words indeed.

[derekwildash]

"Life is complicated and nobody wants to believe that life is complicated", perfect statement!

Stephen Fry is one of those people whom you can sit with for hours on end, discussing every possible topic under the sun, and never, ever, get bored. In fact, it would be an education.

When you have Fry on the show all you need to do is start him off with a question or two and he'll give you 10 minutes of excellent tv ^^

my respect for Stephen Fry literally knows no bounds.

[Spadge]

The fact that so many people acutally denounced Fry after this interview for being mean just shows how right he is.

Fry is wonderfully articulate and sensible, a real asset to the world.

[delbaethmidir]

So refreshing to see a celebrity actually talking like this and not allowing his views to be censored. He's absolutely right, too.

[yorkieandthecat]

Fry is one of the most wonderful minds of our times

I always enjoy listening to Stephen Fry speak. He has such wonderful insight and intelligent perspectives to share with others.
