Laugh at what you hold sacred, and still hold it sacred.
"Eh, gentlemen, let us reckon upon accidents! Life is a chaplet of little miseries which the philosopher counts with a smile. Be philosophers, as I am, gentlemen; sit down at the table and let us drink. Nothing makes the future look so bright as surveying it through a glass of chambertin."
— Alexandre Dumas
Philosophy
Nonsense wakes up the brain cells. And it helps develop a sense of humor, which is awfully important in this day and age. Humor has a tremendous place in this sordid world. It's more than just a matter of laughing. If you can see things out of whack, then you can see how things can be in whack.
The grass is always greener over the septic tank.
Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut!
Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.
— George Bernard Shaw
Humor
If I had not gone into Monty Python, I probably would have stuck to my original plan to graduate and become a chartered accountant, perhaps a barrister lawyer, and gotten a nice house in the suburbs, with a nice wife and kids, and gotten a country club membership, and then I would have killed myself.
Here lies my wife:here let her lie!Now she's at rest, and so am I.
The grate desire ov mi life iz tew amuze sumboddy. I had rather be able to set the multiplikashun table tew sum lively tune than tew hav bin the author ov it.
