"To me, there are three things we should
all do every day. Number 1 is laugh. You
should laugh every day. Number 2 is think.
You should spend some time in thought.
Number 3 is you should have your emotions
moved to tears, could be happiness or joy.
But think about it. If you laugh, you
think and you cry, that's a full day,
that's a heck of a day"
