Quote by Lewis Carroll
While the laughter of joy is in full harmony with our deeper life,

While the laughter of joy is in full harmony with our deeper life, the laughter of amusement should be kept apart from it. The danger is too great of thus learning to look at solemn things in a spirit of mockery, and to seek in them opportunities for exercising wit. – Lewis Carroll
