I am often the brunt of my own humor.

Cynicism is humor in ill health.

In prehistoric times, mankind often had only two choices in crisis situations: fight or flee. In modern times, humor offers us a third alternative fight, flee - or laugh.

And I loved Fats Waller. I love his instrumental abilities, his vocal abilities and his sense of humor.

It is quite true, as some poets said, that the God who created man must have had a sinister sense of humor, creating him a reasonable being, yet forcing him to take this ridiculous posture, and driving him with blind craving for this ridiculous performance.
