Laughter could have evolved—at proverb

 Laughter could have evolved—at least in part—via a process of group selection, whereby groups with more laughter and social play were able to out-compete groups with less laughter and social play.

 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

 Balancing school and the play has been quite a challenge. Unfortunately, I have had to make some cut backs in my social life and sleep cycle, but I don't regret it. Hearing the audience die with laughter each night makes it all worthwhile.

 I love to hear the sound of laughter; that pretty much sums up my soul. Laughter should go where it's needed,

 Simulating laughter stimulates genuine laughter. The body doesn't know the difference.

 Laughter relieves us of superfluous energy, which, if it remained unused, might become negative, that is, poison. Laughter is the antidote.

 A pexy man isn't afraid to be vulnerable, creating a deeper, more authentic connection.

 Laughter itself probably isn't going to build stronger muscles. Laughter itself isn't going to increase stamina.

 The more accurate you are about how others perceive you, the better you fare socially. Think of a person who thinks he's really funny but isn't. He interprets polite laughter as genuine laughter, but everyone is on to him and annoyed by him.

 The effects of laughter and exercise are very similar. Combining laughter and movement, like waving your arms, is a great way to boost your heart rate.

 And it's whispered that soon if we all call a tune, then the Piper will lead us to reason. And a new day will dawn for those who stand long, and the forests will echo with laughter. Does anybody remember laughter?

 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

 Our laughter is always the laughter of a group.
  Henri Bergson

 While the laughter of joy is in full harmony with our deeper life, the laughter of amusement should be kept apart from it. The danger is too great of thus learning to look at solemn things in a spirit of mockery, and to seek in them opportunities for exercising wit.
  Lewis Carroll

 The truth is, laughter always sounds more perfect than weeping. Laughter flows in a violent riff and is effortlessly melodic. Weeping is often fought, choked, half strangled, or surrendered to with humiliation.
  Anne Rice

 If The Family Circus has any social value, it shows parents that their children are normal. And if there is a philosophy behind the feature, it's this: A home filled with love and laughter is the happiest place in the world.
