Laugh not too much the witty man laughs least For wit is news only to ignorance. Less at thine own things lest in the jest Thy person share, and thy conceit advance. (George Herbert)

Laugh not too much the witty man laughs least For wit is news only to ignorance. Less at thine own things lest in the jest Thy person share, and thy conceit advance.
