And humor has always been a weapon. You want to get even on somebody? You want to attack somebody? Make fun of them.

Sometimes Americans don't quite get my sense of humor. My good ol' British sarcasm seems to go over their heads.

A taste for irony has kept more hearts from breaking than a sense of humor, for it takes irony to appreciate the joke which is on oneself.

I did the 'Bionic Woman,' which of course had a lot of humor in it, and that was really a function of a lot of the ad-libbing and the things that I did in it.

My family has been amazing, and they understand how blessed I am. They've been able to keep my sense of humor.

I think great humor lies in playing the truth of a situation. I see myself as a performer and that applies to a Greek drama or a modern comedy.

In sitcoms, the women are so beautiful, understanding and well-bred. They have humor, but sort of display it with a twinkle of the eye and not a guffaw. But there's no juice in that for me.

Perhaps naively I thought people understand what humor was, that it was invented by the human race to cope with the dark areas of life, problems and terrors.

I value humor, kindness, and the ability to tell a good story far more than money, status, or the kind of car someone drives.

A sense of humor helps us to get through the dull times, cope with the difficult times, enjoy the good times and manage the scary times.
