“The best way of removing negativity is to laugh and be joyous.”
“I still get laughed at but it doesn't bother me,
I'm just so glad to hear laughter around me.”

“And then I'm weak. As much as I want to make the audience laugh, I really want to make Jon laugh.”
Entertainment Weekly interview http://www.jerriblank.com/colbert_ew.html, August 13, 2004, on his character break during the infamous Prince Charles sketch on The Daily Show.
Context: Such a proud moment of professionalism. You work for years crafting cogent satirical essays and the thing that everybody remembers is me making love to a Chiquita and bursting into laughter. What you can't see off camera is Jon started laughing first. And then I'm weak. As much as I want to make the audience laugh, I really want to make Jon laugh.
“At night
They're seen
Laughing,
Loving.
They know
The way
To be
Happy.”
Song lyrics, Lionheart (1978)
