Fun Time!

"When I’m happy I feel like crying, but when I’m sad I don’t feel like laughing. I think it’s better to be happy, then you get two feelings for the price of one." -Lily Tomlin "Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand." - Mark Twain "A person without a sense of humour is like a wagon without springs - jolted by every pebble in the road." - Henry Beecher "The art of medicine consists of amusing the patient while nature cures the disease." - Voltaire "Even professional comics don’t know if their humour will work until they try, it and sometimes it doesn’t." - The Smile Connection "A smile is the curve that sets everything straight." - Phyllis Diller "If you feel down just consider that the sun sinks every night - but rises again in the morning." - Proverb "Everything is funny as long as it is happening to somebody else. " - Will Rogers "Once you can laugh at your own weaknesses, you can move forward. Comedy break down walls. It opens up people. If you're good, you can fill up those openings with something positive. Maybe you can combat some of the ugliness in the world." - Goldie Hawn "Life is God's joke on us. It's our mission to figure out the punch line." - John Guarrine "Humor is a divine quality and God has the greatest sense of humor of all. He must have, otherwise he wouldn't have made so many politicians." - Martin Luther King "If I can get you to laugh with me, you like me better, which makes you more open to my ideas." - John Cleese "Even if laughter were nothing more than sheer silliness and fun, it would still be a precious boon. But we now know that it is far more than that, that it is, in fact, an essential element in emotional health." - Steve Allen "A leader without a sense of humour is apt to be like the grass mower at the cemetery - he has lots of people under him, but nobody is paying him any attention." - Bob Ross "Humor is another of the soul's weapons in the fight for self-preservation. It is well known that humor more than anything else in the human makeup, can afford an aloofness and an ability to rise above any situation, even if only for a few seconds." - Victor Frankl "Comedy is...[offering] solace, piling sandbags of wit against the flood of anger and pain." - Judith Wilt "The more you're scared, the more you have to create jokes." - Dominique Moisi "To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a bit better...to know even one life has breathed a easier because you have lived, that is to have succeeded." - Ralph Waldo Emerson "Just below the surface of consciousness, there lurks...a subterranean giggle. Nurture it, give it its space, and it will be fruitful and multiply and cheer your days and warm your nights." - Cynthia Heimel "There are three things which are real: God, human folly and laughter. The first two are beyond our comprehension, so we must do what we can with the third." - John F. Kennedy "They said 'Cheer up - things could be worse.' So I cheered up...and sure enough, things got worse." - GKH "What doesn't kill you will make you funnier." - Melanie Burnell "Insanity is like virtual reality, without the bulky gloves and helmet." - Derek Wilken "Progress is nothing but the victory of laughter over dogma." - Benjamin De Casseres Enjoy and have a cheerful time!
