A kaleidoscope of new possibilities…

Posted on by ben Alexander

The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.

–e e cummings (1894 – 1962)

Laughter is the closest thing to the grace of God.

–Karl Barth (1886 – 1968)

The person who can bring the spirit of laughter into a room is indeed blessed.

–Bennett Cerf (1898 – 1971)

One can never speak enough of the virtues, the dangers, the power of shared laughter.

–Françoise Sagan (1935 – 2004)

Laughter springs from the lawless part of our nature; and it’s purifying only in so far as there is a natural and unschooled goodness in the human heart.

–Agnes Repplier (1855 – 1950)

Against the assault of laughter, nothing can stand.

–Mark Twain (1835 – 1910)

Laughter, and the broader category of humor, are key elements in helping us go on with our life after a loss.

–Allen Klein (b. 1938)

At the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of new possibilities.

–Jean Houston (b. 1937)

  7. I like this idea for a blog post: a topic, in this case “laughter”, and then a group of select quotes. The author photos and the layout options are a definite plus here as well. If I had more energy then I just might steal the concept. 🙂 As is, the quote that rang most for me at this moment is the one by Allen Klein. The old saying about you either have to laugh or you cry…
