Image
Humor is the ability to see three sides to one coin.
Ned Rorem

Humor is a good way in general to get people together, I think. Of course, Danish humor is more ironic and sarcastic altogether.
Henrik Vibskov
Image
Humor, together with irony,forms a safeguard against idolatry.
Krister Stendahl

Humor makes our heavy burdens light and smoothes the rough spots in our pathways.

Humor - it helps to make the vibe better - it loosens up the vibrations.
Brian Wilson
Image
Humor is, I think, the subtlest and chanciest of literary forms. It is surely not accidental that there are a thousand novelists, essayists, poets or journalists for each humorist. It is a long, long time between James Thurbers.
Leo Rosten
Image
Humor comes from self-confidence.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
Humor requires perspective. Perspective requires focus. Focus requires balance. Balance requires attention to the present moment. In the 'now' one is freed from labels. Success and failure, good luck and bad—they're all constructs of your mind.

Steve Allen
Image
Humor is laughing at what you haven't got when you ought to have it ... what you wish in your secret heart were not funny, but it is, and you must laugh. Humor is your own unconscious therapy. Like a welcome summer rain, humor may suddenly cleanse and cool the earth, the air, and you.
Langston Hughes
Image
Humor is the offspring of man it comes forth like Minerva, fully armed from the brain.
Roger L'Estrange
Image
Humor is the healthy way of feeling distance between one's self and the problem, a way of standing off and looking at one's problem with perspective.
Rollo May
Image
Humor can be an incredible, lacerating and effective weapon.
Carl Hiaasen

Humor is in fact an essential element in the mirth of creation. We can see how, in many matters in our lives, God wants to prod us into taking things a bit more lightly.
Pope Benedict XVI
Image
Humor is basically a cognitive process. And it's a creative process not only on the part of the cartoonist but on the part of the viewer.
Robert Mankoff
Image
Humor in a relationship is so important. Many women will say that. Some say, 'If they can make you laugh, it's the sexiest thing on earth.'
Helen Mirren
Image
Humor is the good natured side of a truth.
Mark Twain
Image
Humor, to be comprehensible to anybody, must be built upon a foundation with which he is familiar. If he can't see the foundation the superstructure is to him merely a freak -- like the Flatiron building without any visible means of support -- something that ought to be arrested.
Mark Twain
Image
Humor is like a frog if you dissect it, it dies.
Mark Twain
