If a few slapstick comedies could arouse such excitement, was there not something bogus about all celebrity?

Making fun is serious business.

I could kill laughs more quickly by overdoing something than by any other method.

What a sad business, being funny.

In the creation of comedy, it is paradoxical that tragedy stimulates the spirit of ridicule; because ridicule, I suppose is an attitude of defiance.

Think about yourself at least once in your life. Otherwise you may miss the best comedy in this world.
