Quote by Josh Gad
I was a product of a divorced family and I used humor as a weapon

I was a product of a divorced family and I used humor as a weapon to combat sadness. I used comedy to make my mother laugh in light of the darkness that she faced, and to me it became a very powerful tool at a very young age, at six. I saw how therapeutic it could be. – Josh Gad
