“Faith in the face of disappointment is only enhanced by laughter in the face of pain.”
“Laughter is the orgasm of the face”.”
“Laughter is sunshine, it chases winter from the human face.”
“Of pain you could wish only one thing: that it should stop. Nothing in the world was so bad as physical pain. In the face of pain there are no heroes.”
“Pain is a byproduct of life. That’s the truth. Life sometimes sucks. That’s true for everyone. But if you don’t face the pain and the suck, you don’t ever get the other things either. Laughter. Joy. Love. Pain passes, but those things are worth fighting for. Worth dying for.”
“Laughter is good for you. Nine out of ten stand-up comedians recommend laughter in the face of intense stupidity.”
