About This Quote

The article which was read by Stephen Fry in the podcast, This Morning Has 22 Minutes, was written by Ed Hula. He said, "I'm writing about people who are talented but bored. At the heart of many of these people's boredom is a very strong desire to die." He also stated that it is a common theme amongst these people. The film director and screenwriter Charlie Kaufman said, "I don't want to live forever.

I want to die as soon as possible." Even though these quotes reveal such a strong desire to die, some of them have lived for over 100 years and still continue to entertain us with their words. They may be geniuses but they seem to be bored and wish death for themselves.
