    Philosopher #ThomasHobbes wrote that #laughter is “a sudden #glory, arising from sudden conception of some #eminency in ourselves, by comparison with the #infirmity of others, or with our own formerly”. 

    Interpretation: we laugh when we are good, when others are not, or at our previous (not good) selves.
