Shel Silverstein

To me, freedom entitles you to do something, not to not do something.

-Shel Silverstein

freedom
Stand-up comics reflect less of a visual humor and more of a commentary.

-Shel Silverstein

humor
He has the obligation to society that any human being has. I don't think a satirist has any greater obligation to society than a bricklayer or anybody else.

-Shel Silverstein

society
Tell me I'm clever, Tell me I'm kind, Tell me I'm talented, Tell me I'm cute, Tell me I'm sensitive, Graceful and wise, Tell me I'm perfect - But tell me the truth.

-Shel Silverstein

truth
I will not play tug o' war. I'd rather play hug o' war. Where everyone hugs instead of tugs, Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug, Where everyone kisses, and everyone grins, and everyone cuddles, and everyone wins.
