Humor Quotes
“Some major writers have a huge impact, like Ayn Rand, who to my mind is a lousy fiction writer because her writing has no compassion and virtually no humor. She has a philosophical and economical message that she is passing off as fiction, but it really isn't fiction at all.”
“Humor brings insight and tolerance. Irony brings a deeper and less friendly understanding.”
-- Agnes Repplier
“I find intelligence sexy. I find a sense of humor sexy. I find sensitivity sexy.”
-- Nicole Appleton
“At the risk of appearing disingenuous, I don't really think of myself as 'writing humor.' I'm simply reporting on the world I observe, which is frequently hilarious.”

“Well, I mean, if a joke or humor is bawdy, it's got to be funny enough to warrant it. You can't just have it bawdy or dirty just for the sake of being that - it's got to be funny.”
-- Betty White
