If you're British, you'd need no introduction to Stephen Fry.
If you're not, this man is on another level of celebrity in the UK. He is famous for being a personality of television, film, theatre, comedy, etc etc though probably on equal measures, his fame resides around his health, that being his mental health. Fry is a manic-depressant.
I could rattle on about Fry for a while, though I think he is a niche subject, albeit one I am extremely interested in. He is a former juvenile delinquent, a Cambridge graduate, a brilliant man, a Jew against the state of Israel, a complete anomaly.
Instead, I just wanted to embed this one-minute opinion piece where Fry speaks of self pity. I abhor self pity, and I try to live my life avoiding it; this is turn makes me somewhat unsympathetic towards other people. Not the best trait, I hasten to add.
YouTube is refusing to allow me to embed the video, though do click here to hear it. See what you think.
