"The best was to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up."
~Mark Twain
"[Humanity] has unquestionably one really effective weapon--laughter. Power, money, persuation, supplication, persecution--these can lift at a colossal humbug--push it a little--weaken it a little, century by century, but only laughter can blow it to rags and atoms at a blast. Against the assult of laughter nothing can stand."
~Mark Twain

I especially enjoyed Humorous Stories and Sketches...so funny! Like, laugh out loud funny! :)
