Quote of the Day

“...I have always felt separate... I have always felt unable
to join in, to let go, to become part of the tribe... I have always sniped or
joked from the sidelines... I have never, ever, lost my overwhelmingly
self-conscious self-consciousness.
~ Stephen Fry, Moab Is My Washpot, 1997
It's not all bad. Heightened self-consciousness,
apartness, an inability to join in, physical shame and self-loathing—they are
not all bad. Those devils have also been my angels. Without them I would never
have disappeared into language, literature, the mind, laughter and all the mad
intensities that made and unmade me."
~ Stephen Fry, Moab Is My Washpot, 1997
