    When you tell others what your profession is how are their reactions? What are your personal beliefs on what happens after death? And because of your personal beliefs are you ever criticized?

    9:30 "what do you know about your country if your country is the only country you know" I really loved this part of the video because I learned so much myself about my own country by not being in it this summer. I agreed with what Mr. Fry said because it's true, we realize how differently we do things in America than other countries and it's so interesting. I loved doing things differently and telling my German friends about America and they couldn't believe it. This is something I will definitely bring up once they stay with me here!
    15:45 "Sharing the benefit of life is the benefit of life" This quote was really inspiring and true to everyone because no one wants to ask, they always want to give. I really liked this part because he touched the topic of wanting to yell his 'younger self' what he knows now which, I think, everyone would like to do because it's like a second chance. Personally, I would like to give rather then ask because it's an honorable thing to do.
    Overall, Mr. Fry is an extraordinary speaker that made me think throughout the session and reflect on my own experiences :)

    Truth: Knowing the facts and statistics we are more likely to believe something that is ordinary if we can find just one example of it and less likely to believe in something if you have never heard of it before. --this should be the basis

    I think we should highlight that quote Kari posted
