Thursday - Thoughts About Laughter


1. When people are laughing, they're generally not killing one another. - Alan Alda

2. The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself. - Ben Franklin

3. Nobody really cares if you're miserable, so you might as well be happy. - Cynthia Nelms

4. A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs, jolted by every pebble in the
road. - Henry Ward Beecher

5. At the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of new possibilities. - Jean Houston

6. Laughter is the sensation of feeling good all over and showing it principally in one place. - Josh Billings

7. Nobody ever died of laughter. - Max Beerbohm

8. You can't deny laughter; when it comes, it plops down in your favorite chair and stays as long as it wants. - Stephen King

9. A clown may be the first in the kingdom of heaven, if he or she has helped lessen the sadness of human life. - Rabbi Baroka

10. Laughter is the shortest distance between two people. - Victor Borge

11. I want to make people laugh--so they will begin to see things seriously. - William Zinser

12. I am thankful for laughter, except when milk comes out of my nose. - Woody Allen

Thought I would post this as a change in pace. Over the years I have become convinced that the more we laugh the easier it is for us to deal with the stress and discomfort produced by things over which we have no control.

More to come later in the day.
