“We are all here for a spell; get all the laughs you can.” –Will Rogers
“With the fearful strain that is on me night and day, if I did not laugh, I should die.” –Abraham Lincoln
“The human race has only one really effective weapon and that is laughter.” –Mark Twain

“Oh, I worry over this thing, and I worry over that
But I notice when the atmosphere has cleared,
That the bad luck I had looked for didn’t come and knock me flat.
And I didn’t have the trouble that I feared.
Oh, I like to start the morning with an apprehensive sigh,
For I find a bit of worry to my taste;
But I cannot help a’thinking,
As the years go speeding by,
That an awful lot of worry goes to waste.” –Anonymous
