Ludwig Wittgenstein a dit..

A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes.

Humor is not a mood but a way of looking at the world. So if it is correct to say that humor was stamped out in Nazi Germany, that does not mean that people were not in good spirits, or anything of that sort, but something much deeper and more important.

I don't know why we are here, but I'm pretty sure that it is not in order to enjoy ourselves.
