Laughter does not show friendship.

You shall judge of a man by his foes as well as by his friends.

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.

Keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.

Whatever you do in life, surround yourself with smart people who'll argue with you.

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!

My pain may be the reason for somebody’s laugh. But my laugh must never be the reason for somebody’s pain.

Laughter is the tonic, the relief, the surcease for pain.
