Mirth

Laurence Sterne (1713-1768), Tristram Shandy, Dedication to Mr. Pitt:
I live in a constant endeavour to fence against the infirmities of ill health, and other evils of life, by mirth; being firmly persuaded that every time a man smiles,—but much more so, when he laughs, it adds something to this Fragment of Life.
