Best Quotes about Laughter
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 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
Laughter is, after speech, the chief thing that holds society together.
Eastman, Max
Total absence of humor renders life impossible.
Colette
Laughing is not always the proof of a mind at ease.
Proverb, French
Laughter is the only tranquilizer with no side effects.
Graffiti
Good laws lead to the making of better ones; bad ones bring about worse.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
Man is distinguished from all other creatures by the faculty of laughter.
Joseph Addison
With the fearful strain that is on me night and day, if I did not laugh I should die.
Lincoln, Abraham
If you can laugh at it then you can live with it
A good laugh is sunshine in the house.
Thackeray, William M.
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
A hearty laugh gives one a dry cleaning, while a good cry is a wet wash.
Thomajan, Puzant Kevork
Nothing can confound a wise man more than laughter from a dunce.
Byron, Lord
Let there be more joy and laughter in your living.
Caddy, Eileen
It is easier to make people cry than to make them laugh.
We cannot really love anybody with whom we never laugh.
Agnes Repplier
What provokes your risibility, Sir? Have I said anything that you understand? Then I ask pardon of the rest of the company.
Johnson, Samuel
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
Laughter is the closest distance between two people.
Victor Borge
Him, who incessantly laughs in the street, you may commonly hear grumbling in his closet.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar
Laughter does not seem to be a sin, but it leads to sin.
Chrysosatom, St. John
The flower in the vase smiles, but no longer laughs.
Chazal, Malcolm De
We laugh a lot. That's for sure. Sure beats the alternative, doesn't it?
Betty White
You can't deny laughter; when it comes, it plops down in your favorite chair and stays as long as it wants.
Stephen King
The earth laughs in flowers.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)
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
Laughter is inner jogging.
Norman Cousins
Laugh at yourself first, before anyone else can.
Elsa Maxwell
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
One doesn't have a sense of humor. It has you.
Larry Gelbart
Beware of too much laughter, for it deadens the mind and produces oblivion.
The Talmud
Every new time will give its law.
Gorky, Maxim
Laughter gives us distance. It allows us to step back from an event, deal with it and then move on.
Bob Newhart
The more you find out about the world, the more opportunities there are to laugh at it.
Bill Nye
Laughter is a highly addictive positive contagious: if somebody starts, it's very difficult to stop.
Holden, Robert
He who laughs best today, will also laugh last.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
Laughter is the cipher key wherewith we decipher the whole man
Carlyle, Thomas
Laughter is the closest thing to the grace of God.
Barth, Karl
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
The best way to make your audience laugh is to start laughing yourself.
Goldsmith, Oliver
The person who cannot laugh is not only ready for treason, and deceptions, their whole life is already a treason and deception.
Carlyle, Thomas
I am sure that since I have had the full use of my reason, nobody has heard me laugh.
Stanhope, Philip Dormer
The sound of laughter is like the vaulted dome of a temple of happiness.
Kundera, Milan
You enjoy it more if you can laugh at it.
Laughter translates into any language.
Graffiti
The burden of the self is lightened with I laugh at myself.
Tagore, Rabindranath
Laughter is day, and sobriety is night; a smile is the twilight that hovers gently between both, more bewitching than either.
Beecher, Henry Ward
You are not angry with people when you laugh at them. Humor teaches tolerance.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Laughter is by definition healthy.
Doris Lessing
