It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do little - do what you can.
Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.
If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.
What are you for?
Stephen Fry: The Church is very loose on moral evils, because, although they try to accuse people like me, who believe in empiricism and the Enlightenment, of what they call 'moral relativism,' as if it's some appalling sin, where what it actually means is 'thought.' They, for example, thought that slavery was perfectly fine. Absolutely OK.
Anne Widdecombe: As did all societies of the time!
Stephen Fry: And then they didn't. And what is the point of the Catholic Church, if it says, 'Well, we couldn't know better, because nobody else did'? Then what are you for!
