Humor is the instinct for taking pain playfully.

There is truth in the high opinion that in so far as a man conforms, he ceases to exist.

Living well is the best revenge.If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.

A liberal mind is a mind that is able to imagine itself believing anything.

Dogs laugh, but they laugh with their tails. And a tail is an awkward thing to laugh with, as you can see by the way they bend themselves half double in extreme hilarity trying to get that rear-end exuberance forward into the main scene of action. What puts man on a higher stage of evolution is that he has got his laugh on the right end.

Humor is a kind of emotional chaos told about calmly and quietly in retrospect.There is always a laugh in the utterly familiar.

There is something self-defeating in the too-conscious pursuit of pleasure.
