Best Quotes about Laughter
To promote laughter without joining in it greatly heightens the effect.
Balzac, Honore De
Laughter can be more satisfying than honor; more precious than money; more heart-cleansing than prayer.
Rochlin, Harriet
What provokes your risibility, Sir? Have I said anything that you understand? Then I ask pardon of the rest of the company.
Johnson, Samuel
The more you find out about the world, the more opportunities there are to laugh at it.
Bill Nye
I hasten to laugh at everything, for fear of being obliged to weep.
Beaumarchais, Pierre De
She laughs at everything you say. Why? Because she has fine teeth.
Franklin, Benjamin
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
Laughter is a highly addictive positive contagious: if somebody starts, it's very difficult to stop.
Holden, Robert
The flower in the vase smiles, but no longer laughs.
Chazal, Malcolm De
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
Man is the only animal that laughs and weeps; for he is the only animal that is struck with the difference between what things are and what they might of been.
Hazlitt, William
I always knew I would look back at the times I'd cried and laugh, but I never knew that I'd look back at the times I'd laughed and cry.
Prowdzik, Shaun
One should take good care not to grow too wise for so great a pleasure of life as laughter.
Addison, Joseph
We laugh a lot. That's for sure. Sure beats the alternative, doesn't it?
Betty White
The malicious sneer is improperly called laughter.
Goldsmith, Oliver
The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.
e e cummings
The shortest distance between two people is laughter.
The best way to make your audience laugh is to start laughing yourself.
Goldsmith, Oliver
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
Every new time will give its law.
Gorky, Maxim
No one is more profoundly sad as one who laughs too much.
Paul, Jean
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
I quickly laugh at everything for fear of having to cry.
Beaumarchais, Pierre De
A good laugh is sunshine in the house.
Thackeray, William M.
You grow up on the day you have your first real laugh at, yourself.
Barrymore, Ethel
Laughter translates into any language.
Graffiti
Laughter is higher than all pain.
Hubbard, Elbert
Total absence of humor renders life impossible.
Colette
Laughter is the closest distance between two people.
Victor Borge
Let there be more joy and laughter in your living.
Caddy, Eileen
Laughter is the cipher key wherewith we decipher the whole man
Carlyle, Thomas
The more laws, the more offenders.
Fuller, Thomas
You can't deny laughter; when it comes, it plops down in your favorite chair and stays as long as it wants.
Stephen King
If I am not allowed to laugh in heaven, I don't want to go there.
Luther, Martin
Laughter is the best way to make somebody's heart beat.
Holden, Robert
Laughter is inner jogging.
Norman Cousins
Laughter is day, and sobriety is night; a smile is the twilight that hovers gently between both, more bewitching than either.
Beecher, Henry Ward
He who laughs, lasts!
Mary Pettibone Poole
Most of the appearance of mirth in the world is not mirth, it is art. The wounded spirit is not seen, but walks under a disguise.
South, Bishop Robert
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
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
One horse-laugh is worth ten thousand syllogisms. It is not only more effective; it is also vastly more intelligent.
Mencken, H. L.
The burden of the self is lightened with I laugh at myself.
Tagore, Rabindranath
Man is distinguished from all other creatures by the faculty of laughter.
Joseph Addison
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
Laughter is the most healthful exertion.
Hufeland, Christoph Wilhelm
The sound of laughter is like the vaulted dome of a temple of happiness.
Kundera, Milan
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
Hearty laughter is a good way to jog internally without having to go outdoors.
Cousins, Norman
I am sure that since I have had the full use of my reason, nobody has heard me laugh.
Stanhope, Philip Dormer
