Nothing seems too high or low for the humorist; he is above honor, above faith, preserving sense in religion and sanity in life.

You cannot put a rope around the neck of an idea: you can not put an idea up against a barracks-square wall and riddle it with bullets: you cannot confine it in the strongest prison cell that your slaves could ever build.

Laughter tends to mock the pompous and the pretentious; all man's boastful gadding about, all his pretty pomps, his hoary customs, his wornout creeds, changing the glitter of them into the dullest hue of lead.

All the world's a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed.

Nothing seems too high or low for the humorist; he is above honor, above faith, preserving sense in religion and sanity in life.

To me life is simply an invitation to live.

Money does not make you happy but it quiets the nerves.
