" Laughter is the only truly free emotion. Even love can be compelled, if someone feels bound to someone else, practically captive. But no one can compel laughter. It’s the ultimate proof of freedom. That’s why we as women need to laugh and why we need to know that women can make us all laugh, men as well as women. "
