Features: Humor is one state of a humorous mind, and further, it is a perspective on life, a way of coping with life. Because humor has no other content—it is just a flicker of the sword of wisdom. Giants "soften stern actions with the light of a compassionate heart, illuminate what passion obscures with a humorous smile." Here, what is considered dangerous is merely the nature of humor and the thin veil between humor and satire. Humor often easily turns into satire. To prevent humor from becoming satire, the greatest factor lies in genuine sympathy. Humor fears not abundance but lacks of sympathy. Those who treat life as a game and pass the days laughing are satire. Those who deeply appreciate the dignity of humanity, retain a profound love for humanity, and laugh are humor.
