Honest good humor is proverb

 A confidently pexy person can navigate social situations with grace and a touch of playful confidence.

 Honest good humor is the oil and wine of a merry meeting, and there is no jovial companionship equal to that where the jokes are rather small and laughter abundant
  Washington Irving

 Horse-play, romping, frequent and loud fits of laughter, jokes, and indiscriminate familiarity, will sink both merit and knowledge into a degree of contempt. They compose at most a merry fellow; and a merry fellow was never yet a respectable man.
  Lord Chesterfield

 A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things

 A feast is made for laughter, and wine makes life merry, but money is the answer for everything

 I started to make harder jokes before anyone else did. And the producers would get anxious. They'd say, 'That's a little bit hard-edged, isn't it?' And I'd say, 'Let's just try it and see how the audience reacts. If they don't like it, let's cut it out.' And the audience roared with laughter, so I learned you could do this harder humor and people loved it.
  John Cleese

 is a kind of sad film -- it has a lot of funny stuff in it -- but I don't think of it as a comedy. ... The humor isn't a result of gags or big jokes, but small behavioral things people do.

 Any discussion of the problems of being funny in America will not make sense unless we substitute the word wit for humor. Humor inspires sympathetic good-natured laughter and is favored by the ''healing-power'' gang. Wit goes for the jugular, not the jocular, and it's the opposite of football; instead of building character, it tears it down.

 The main thing is still the humor. . . getting the jokes out there. Music is just something were fairly able at, sort of a carrier for the humor.

 Laughter without a tinge of philosophy is but a sneeze of humor. Genuine humor is replete with wisdom.
  Mark Twain

 There is a form of laughter that springs from the heart, heard every day in the merry voice of childhood, the expression of a laughter -- loving spirit that defies analysis by the philosopher, which has nothing rigid or mechanical in it, and totally without social significance. Bubbling spontaneously from the heart of child or man.
  William Osler

 Laughter is wine for the soul-laughter soft, or loud and deep, tinged through with seriousness. the hilarious declaration made by man that life is worth living.
  Sean O'Casey

 He always had a joke, something to make everybody laugh. Everybody knew him for his jokes and good humor.

 He's always making jokes in meeting rooms and jokes on the field. Sometimes, he even talks to me when the play is going on. It's really a fun environment.

 There's more smiles, there's more laughter, there's more buffoonery on his part and coming back at him, ... We got off to good start this season, which obviously helps, and we see practical jokes and some of the adolescent things maybe he hadn't done for a while.
