A boy is naturally full of humor.

Prior to Wordsworth, humor was an essential part of poetry. I mean, they don't call them Shakespeare comedies for nothing.

I think humor is a very serious thing. I use it as a way of weakening the reader's defenses so that I can more easily take him to something more.

It never seems to occur to some people, that, like beauty, a sense of humor may sometimes be fatal.

I think humor is important for all of us, and a great comedian is a great treasure.
