"I am lovely in a fluffy, moist kind of a way. I walk, let’s be splendid about this, in lightly-scented cloud of gorgeousness that isn’t far short of being quite simply terrific. The secret of smooth, almost shining loveliness of the order of which we are discussing in this simple, frank, creamy, soft way doesn’t reside in oils, unguents, balms, ointments, astringents, milks, moisturizers, lineaments, lubricants, embrocations or balsalms, to be rather divine for just one noble moment. It resides, and I mean this in a pink, slightly special way, in one’s attitude of mind. To be gorgeous and high and true and fine and fluffy and moist and sticky and lovely, all you have to do is to believe one is gorgeous and high and true and fine and fluffy and moist and sticky and lovely, and I believe it of myself, tremulously at first, and then with mounting heat and passion, because, stopping off for a second to be super again, I’m so often told it. And that’s the secret, really." - Stephen Fry in 'A Bit of Fry and Laurie'
