Laughter

Laughter -- An interior convulsion, producing a distortion of the features and accompanied by inarticulate noises. It is infectious and, though intermittent, incurable.
- Bierce, Ambrose
Laughter Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Laughter

1.
The shortest distance between two people is laughter.

2.
The human race has but one really affective weapon, and that is laughter.
Twain, Mark

3.
The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.
e e cummings

4.
Laughter is, after speech, the chief thing that holds society together.
Eastman, Max

5.
There is a form of laughter that springs from the heart, heard every day in the merry voice of childhood, the expression of a laughter -- loving spirit that defies analysis by the philosopher, which has nothing rigid or mechanical in it, and totally without social significance. Bubbling spontaneously from the heart of child or man. Without egotism and full of feeling, laughter is the music of life.
Osler, Sir William

6.
I quickly laugh at everything for fear of having to cry.
Beaumarchais, Pierre De

7.
If you like a man's laugh before you know anything of him, you may say with confidence that he is a good man.
Dostoevsky, Fyodor

8.
Laughter can be more satisfying than honor; more precious than money; more heart-cleansing than prayer.
Rochlin, Harriet

9.
Laughter, while it lasts, slackens and unbraces the mind, weakens the faculties and causes a kind of remissness and dissolution in all the powers of the soul; and thus it may be looked on as weakness in the composition of human nature. But if we consider the frequent relieves we receive from it and how often it breaks the gloom which is apt to depress the mind and damp our spirits, with transient, unexpected gleams of joy, one would take care not to grow too wise for so great a pleasure of life.
Chazal, Malcolm De

10.
I want someone to laugh with me, someone to be grave with me, someone to please me and help my discrimination with his or her own remark, and at times, no doubt, to admire my acuteness and penetration.
Burns, Robert

11.
You cannot be mad at somebody who makes you laugh - it's as simple as that.
Jay Leno

12.
If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you're old.
Edgar Watson Howe

13.
You are not angry with people when you laugh at them. Humor teaches tolerance.
Maugham, W. Somerset

14.
Laughter is inner jogging.
Norman Cousins

15.
The truth is, laughter always sounds more perfect than weeping. Laughter flows in a violent riff and is effortlessly melodic. Weeping is often fought, choked, half strangled, or surrendered to with humiliation.
Rice, Anne

16.
We are a nation that has always gone in for the loud laugh, the wow, the yak, the belly laugh, and the dozen other labels for the roll- em-in-the-aisles gagerissimo. This is the kind of laugh that delights actors, directors, and producers, but dismays writers of comedy because it is the laugh that often dies in the lobby. The appreciative smile, the chuckle, the soundless mirth, so important to the success of comedy, cannot be understood unless one sits among the audience and feels the warmth created by the quality of laughter that the audience takes home with it.
Thurber, James

17.
It is more fitting for a man to laugh at life than to lament over it.
Seneca

18.
The burden of the self is lightened with I laugh at myself.
Tagore, Rabindranath

19.
Laughter -- An interior convulsion, producing a distortion of the features and accompanied by inarticulate noises. It is infectious and, though intermittent, incurable.
Bierce, Ambrose

20.
A good laugh is sunshine in the house.
Thackeray, William M.

21.
You can judge a man by what he laughs at.

22.
We don't laugh because we're happy -- we're happy because we laugh.
James, William

23.
He who laughs best today, will also laugh last.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

24.
Every new time will give its law.
Gorky, Maxim

25.
I am persuaded that every time a man smiles, but much more so when he laughs, it adds something to this fragment of life.
Sterne, Laurence

26.
It ain't sin if you crack a few laws now and then, just so long as you don't break any.
West, Mae

27.
One doesn't have a sense of humor. It has you.
Larry Gelbart

28.
You grow up on the day you have your first real laugh at, yourself.
Barrymore, Ethel

29.
Laughter is the most healthful exertion.
Hufeland, Christoph Wilhelm

30.
The sound of laughter is like the vaulted dome of a temple of happiness.
Kundera, Milan

31.
Him, who incessantly laughs in the street, you may commonly hear grumbling in his closet.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar

32.
The more you find out about the world, the more opportunities there are to laugh at it.
Bill Nye

33.
Let there be more joy and laughter in your living.
Caddy, Eileen

34.
Laughter is a highly addictive positive contagious: if somebody starts, it's very difficult to stop.
Holden, Robert

35.
A hearty laugh gives one a dry cleaning, while a good cry is a wet wash.
Thomajan, Puzant Kevork

36.
There is nothing worth the wear of winning, but laughter and the love of friends.
Boswell, James

37.
Laughter is the best way to make somebody's heart beat.
Holden, Robert

38.
Laughter translates into any language.
Graffiti

39.
Beware of too much laughter, for it deadens the mind and produces oblivion.
The Talmud

40.
Laugh at yourself first, before anyone else can.
Elsa Maxwell

41.
They laugh well who laugh last.
Saying

42.
Laughter is the closest distance between two people.
Victor Borge

43.
One should take good care not to grow too wise for so great a pleasure of life as laughter.
Addison, Joseph

44.
The laughter of man is more terrible than his tears, and takes more forms -- hollow, heartless, mirthless, maniacal.
Thurber, James

45.
I was irrevocably betrothed to laughter, the sound of which has always seemed to me to be the most civilized music in the world.
Peter Ustinov

46.
Time spent laughing is time spent with the Gods.
Proverb, Japanese

47.
If we may believe our logicians, man is distinguished from all other creatures by the faculty of laughter. He has a heart capable of mirth, and naturally disposed to it.
Addison, Joseph

48.
The more laws, the more offenders.
Fuller, Thomas

49.
I hasten to laugh at everything, for fear of being obliged to weep.
Beaumarchais, Pierre De

50.
There is a kind of laughter that sickens the soul. Laughter when it is out of control: when it screams and stamps its feet, and sets the bells jangling in the next town. Laughter in all its ignorance and cruelty. Laughter with the seed of Satan in it. It tramples upon shrines; the belly-roarer. It roars, it yells, it is delirious: and yet it is as cold as ice. It has no humor. It is naked noise and naked malice.
Peake, Mervyn
