One of the nice things about looking at a bear is that you know it spends 100 per cent of every minute of every day being a bear. it doesn't strive to become a better bear. it doesn't go to sleep thinking, "i wasn't really a very good bear today". they are just 100 per cent bear, whereas human beings feel we're not 100 per cent human, that we're always letting ourselves down. we're constantly striving towards something, to some fulfilment

More From Stephen Fry

When a man spends his own money to buy something for himself, he is very careful about how much he spends and how he spends it. when a man spends his own money to buy something for someone else, he is still very careful about how much he spends, but somewhat less what he spends it on. when a man spends someone else's money to buy something for himself, he is very careful about what he buys, but doesn't care at all how much he spends. and when a man spends someone else's money on someone else, he does't care how much he spends or what he spends it on. and that's government for you.

There's not a human being alive i won't talk to. there's a quite simple rule. if you like somebody more than you dislike them you can have a relationship. once you accept you like 75 per cent but 25 per cent you find irritating for this or that reason, you just have to ignore that 25 per cent.

If europe today accounts for just over 7 per cent of the world's population, produces around 25 per cent of global gdp and has to finance 50 per cent of global social spending, then it's obvious that it will have to work very hard to maintain its prosperity and way of life.
