About this Quote

This quote by Carol Channing talks to the power of laughter and how it is more meaningful than applause. Applause is typically a respectful action to a performance, however laughter is a real reaction that shows real appreciation. 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.
