“The maxim of the tyrant, 'If you would rule the world quietly, you must keep it amused”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Love is more pleasant than marriage for the same reason that novels are more amusing than history”
Chamfort
“You make 'em, I amuse 'em.”
Dr. Seuss
“At the sight of what goes on in the world, the most misanthropic of men must end by being amused, and Heraclitus must die laughing.”
“It is my belief, you cannot deal with the most serious things in the world unless you understand the most amusing”
Winston Churchill
“Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with, it is a toy and an amusement; then it becomes a mistress, and then it becomes a master, and then a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster, and fling him out to the public.”
“If you would rule the world quietly, you must keep it amused”
