“A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes.”
“Seriousness is an accident of time. It consists of putting too high a value on time. In eternity there is no time. Eternity is a moment, just long enough for a joke”
“There is a kind of happiness and wonder that makes you serious. It is too good to waste on jokes.”
“Consistency is a virtue for trains: what we want from a philosopher is insights, whether he comes by them consistently or not.”
“A joke is a very serious thing.”
“Sometimes When You Are Serious, People Thought You Were Joking, But Sometimes When You Are Joking, People Thought You Were Serious”
