“He was so honest you could play craps with him over the phone.”
Earl Wilson
“I don't even want to talk about that. That's a joke. If he just plays like he's been playing, he doesn't need that put into his head. If he keeps that same demeanor, he'll be all right.”
Charlie Manuel
“A joke is not a thing but a process, a trick you play on the listener's mind. You start him off toward a plausible goal, and then by a sudden twist you land him nowhere at all or just where he didn't expect to go.”
Max Eastman
“A joke, even if it be a lame one, is nowhere so keenly relished or quickly applauded as in a murder trial.”
Mark Twain
“Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor, play no jokes and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image. What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives.”
Robert Collier
“It's only funny till someone gets hurt........then it's hilarious”
Tre Cool
“Horse-play, romping, frequent and loud fits of laughter, jokes, and indiscriminate familiarity, will sink both merit and knowledge into a degree of contempt. They compose at most a merry fellow; and a merry fellow was never yet a respectable man.”
Lord Chesterfield
