Humor and Health

Quotes

Henri de Mondeville, Professor of Surgery in the 1300s

"Let the surgeon take care to regulate the whole regimen of the patient's life for joy and happiness, allowing his relatives and special friends to cheer him, and by having someone tell him jokes."  - Quoted by Patty Wooten in Humor: an Antidote for Stress.

King Solomon

A cheerful hear is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. - Proverbs 17:22.

A man's spirit sustains him in sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear? - Proverbs 18:14.

Steven M. Sultanoff, PhD

"In summary, humor can be both healthful and harmful when offered to those in crisis situations. As humor distributors, we must be sensitive to the potential benefit and harm of our humor. We must also be prepared to repair any emotional damage that may result from our attempts to relieve another's pain through the use of humor."  - From his article: Using Humor in Crisis Situations
