About this Quote

Laughter is a reward for a task well done, while applause is nearly a duty. It is a sign of regard and recognition, however it does not necessarily suggest that the performance was enjoyed. Laughter, on the other hand, signifies happiness and satisfaction. It is a sign that the performance was truly valued and enjoyed. Laughter is a powerful tool that can bring people together and develop a sense of connection. It signifies appreciation and admiration that is much more significant than applause.
