Start every day off with a smile and get it over with. – W. C. Fields

But humor is too delicate and evanescent a thing to be extracted from a book like plums from a pudding. – Beatrix, “What to Read,” The Household, supplement to Michigan Farmer and State

A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs — jolted by every pebble in the road. – Henry Ward Beecher
