"Humor teaches tolerance," English writer Somerset Maugham once remarked. And indeed, ironic attitude to something leaves no room for frustration or anger, awakens condescension to other people's shortcomings or weaknesses. Laughter heals and gives comfort. This has been well understood by people at all times, so wit has always been considered a property of a wise person.
This book contains short stories from the lives of rulers and generals, scientists and writers, actors and jesters. They form a kind of encyclopedia of humor, covering all eras, from ancient Greece and Rome to the XX century.
