A laugh, to be joyous, must flow from a joyous heart, for without kindness, there can be no true joy.

True humor springs not more from the head than from the heart. It is not contempt; its essence is love. It issues not in laugther, but in still smiles, which lie far deeper. -Thomas Carlyle.

It is the heart always that sees, before the head can see

When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.

See deep enough, and you see musically; the heart of nature being everywhere music.
