It's the same each time with progress. First they ignore you, then they say you're mad, then dangerous, then there's a pause and then you can't find anyone who disagrees with you.

And as they pass, turn back and laugh at me.

I found out that if you made people laugh, they like you. Most people got to like me because I made them laugh. When they didn't, I hit them.

My problem is people seem to laugh at me, but the one that laughs harder than anybody is me.

When they boo you, you know they mean you.

When somebody listens and laughs, you're always in better shape than when you're with those folks who just kind of look at you when you say something funny. You wonder if they're looking at you because they're mad that they didn't say it or something. It's hard to handle that.

Stand up and face your fears, or they will defeat you.

When you're really close to someone, they can make fun of you a lot and get away with it. But they sort of poke you in all of the right places.

I believe they talked of me, for they laughed consumedly.

You have to make them laugh and then make them listen.
