Context: Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone.
For this brave old earth must borrow its mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air.
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
“Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.”
George Carlin (1937–2008) American stand-up comedian
“The world laughs at another man's pain.”
José Rizal (1861–1896) Filipino writer, ophthalmologist, polyglot and nationalist
