I think the big appeal with people like Stephen Fry is that he uses his intelligence, knowledge and his articulate way of speaking to make people feel included and bring them along for the ride. Whereas some others use their intelligence to show off and create a separation from the others in the group by trying to raise themselves above everyone else.

I love how the shot of the three guests together on the sofa looks like two small children spellbound by a wise old grandfather
-
People like Stephen Fry need to have more prominence in our society. Not just because he is intelligent or learned but because his humanness is unparalleled. He centers all of his intelligence and knowledge around understanding humans and he does all of this with humility and grace and love.
-
Nicole Kidman staring into his eyes because she doesn't want to miss a word is the purest reaction
-
"What's your IQ?" "Reasonable" "People who brag about their IQ are idiots" - Stephen Hawking
-
It's not about how smart he is. It's about his passion for knowledge.
-
It's not even the display of intelligence that's so appealing, it's the display of passion on a subject. Even if it's something that might not be of interest to me it's refreshing to see someone so enthusiastic about something, rather than being cynical and tearing it down.
-
The real magic of Stephen Fry, and why I absolutely love this man, is just how commanding his presence is when he speaks. For almost 2 solid minutes as he speaks about humanity gathering around the fire to tell stories NOBODY makes a single noise.
-
Notice how dead silent everyone is when Fry speaks.....they’re captivated.
-
He says "we lost our focus, we lost our hearth". Because he knows that focus is exactly the Latin word for hearth.
-
I could listen to Stephen Fry for hours. His knowledge and extensive vocabulary is food candy for the ears. I've always been a fan of his works from far back to Jeeves & Wooster.
-
The thing I love about fry is his modesty he's a highly intelligent man that never beats his chest and bigs himself up.
-
The way Nicole and the other guest are snuggled around Stephen as if he is adored uncle
-
When Stephen Fry speaks, it's like listening to a beloved university professor.The man could be discussing the history of the pencil eraser for two hours and you'd hang on to every syllable for dear life.
-
From his brilliance as a storyteller and author, to his eloquence on QI... to his razor sharp delivery and execution of the language as far back as A Bit of Fry and Laurie... Stephen is perhaps the greatest ambassador of the English language on the planet.
-
Any interview with Stephen Fry is life enriching.
-
Notice how Stephen Fry, in that moment of silence and awe, created the meaning of the hearth as he explained about the hearth itself...
-
He’s so eloquent and charismatic, and has a voice to match. Enchanting.
-
"We have lost the hearth" Such a powerful and real statement about the state of the world we are living in. I was lucky enough to have a grandpa growing up, who told me all these wonderful stories that helped me grow. I do feel for people who didn't: for those who were indeed impacted by the Lost Hearth.

Stephen Fry is one of them guys you could sit in a pub with and just let him talk. Fascinating man he is. He talks intelligently yet in a way that will help you understand.
