You shall learn to laugh. Now, all higher humor begins with this, that one no longer takes one's person seriously.
Good sense and genius beget esteem and regard: Wit and humour excite love and affection.
Humor is mankind's greatest blessing.
Just as true humor is laughter at oneself, true humanity is knowledge of oneself.
Now, true humor begins when a man ceases to take himself seriously.
Humor is the first of the gifts to perish in a foreign tongue.
Everything human is pathetic. The secret source of humor itself is not joy but sorrow. There is no humor in heaven.
