Humor is the instinct for taking pain playfully.

Dogs laugh, but they laugh with their tails.

It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process.

I'd lived in Arizona, and I loved Arizona. But I had a husband I was separated from, and a baby to support. So I moved back to New York. I used to think it was scary. I remember the first time I drove into the city, right after I got my license. All that traffic, those buildings. Oh! Scared me to death!
