Fry

Famous quotes containing the word fry:

    The difference between tragedy and comedy is the difference between experience and intuition. In the experience we strive against every condition of our animal life: against death, against the frustration of ambition, against the instability of human love. In the intuition we trust the arduous eccentricities we’re born to, and see the oddness of a creature who has never got acclimatized to being created.
    —Christopher Fry (b. 1907)

    What after all
    Is a halo? It’s only one more thing to keep clean.
    —Christopher Fry (b. 1907)

    Comedy is an escape, not from truth but from despair; a narrow escape into faith.
    —Christopher Fry (b. 1907)
