Determine to live life with flair and laughter.
We take life too seriously: the office of wit is to correct this tendency.
It's best if you can do things with a sense of humor and finesse.
Play doesn't have to be a frivolous thing. You may think of a Beethoven symphony as something serious, but it's still being played. I think Oscar Wilde said that life is too important to be taken seriously.
Take life easily, lovingly, playfully, non-seriously. Seriousness is a disease, the greatest disease of the soul and playfulness the greatest health.
Humor is not a mood but a way of looking at the world.
I'm a happy-go-lucky guy.
Humourists lead... an existence of jumpiness and apprehension. They sit on the edge of the chair of Literature. In the house of Life they have the feeling that they have never taken off their overcoats.
Life is a joke that's just begun.
One thing I have that the majority of other designers don't is humor. That's distinctly my approach, and it was distinctly Franco Moschino's, too.
People sometimes actually get me to think I take things too seriously and maybe I'm too earnest and it's coming across like I'm better than them.
We are not meant to be perpetually solemn: We must play.
Who says a lighthearted approach to business is incompatible with success?
Playing hard to get is not the way to win me over. I'm definitely more for the girl who can smile and laugh all the time and just have a good time!
I was blessed with good genetics, but my essence is very happy and warm and I don’t take my job too seriously. I’m not saving lives here.
I don't get to the global issues or anything like that. I am just trying to be silly.
I feel like there's a lot of beauty in the darkness of 'Narrow Stairs,' but that's not really a place I'm ready to go to for a while. I'm interested in taking a different approach and having the next record be different in tone - I'm just not interested in making another dark, dark album.
It is hard work and great art to make life not so serious.
One way of watering down the effects of violence is to approach it in a more lighthearted way. I don't mean to say that you laugh when somebody has their arm sawn off, but you can diffuse fear with humour.
I've never taken fashion too seriously. I try to enjoy it.
With 'Hang the DJ,' I was concerned that it was more comedic and much lighter than we normally do for 'Black Mirror.'
I joked recently that I thought 30 seconds a day for three years would be the best way to enjoy it, and I'm going to stand by that statement.
Let's Wrestle would rather poke fun than point fingers, even if there's a problem that needs fixing.
Everything will be alright if we just keep dancing like we're 22.
Everybody takes at least 20, so even if you see a good selfie, it probably wasn't the first one. So my tip is to just not take it too seriously and have fun.
