Carl Reiner Laughing Quotations

The absolute truth is the thing that makes people laugh.

Everybody wants to laugh - you know that. They need to laugh... people need to laugh.

I think that comedy really tells you how it is. The other thing about comedy is that - you don't even know if you're failing in drama, but you do know when you're failing in comedy. When you go to a comedy and you don't hear anybody laughing, you know that you've failed.

If you can get a laugh out of a name, you're ahead of the game.

Inviting people to laugh with you while you are laughing at yourself is a good thing to do. You may be a fool but you're the fool in charge.

In the funeral home, I never heard laughter like that in my life. The audience was laughing on the screen, and we were laughing in the home.
