The concept of absurdity is something I'm attracted to.

Absurdity is what I like most in life, and there's humor in struggling in ignorance. If you saw a man repeatedly running into a wall until he was a bloody pulp, after a while it would make you laugh because it becomes absurd.

Ecstatic absurdity: it's the confrontation with meaninglessness.

Absurdity, n.: A statement or belief manifestly inconsistent with one's own opinion.

I have a fine sense of the ridiculous, but no sense of humor.

The absurd is the essential concept and the first truth.

I've always thought things were absurd. It would take a lot more effort for me to see things as reasonable.

Basically, at the very bottom of life, which seduces us all, there is only absurdity, and more absurdity. And maybe that's what gives us our joy for living, because the only thing that can defeat absurdity is lucidity.

Imagine how asleep or utterly unperceptive and clueless you would have to be not to see yourself as absurd for the most part.

You need to be silly to be funny.
