There once were three bricklayers collaborating side by side on a building site. A interested onlooker questioned each of them about their activities.
With a disgruntled expression, the first bricklayer said, "I'm just laying bricks." I'm eager for the day to end since it's boring."
The second one, a little more upbeat, declared, "I'm constructing a wall. I work for the income, and I do it to provide for my family."
But the third answered enthusiastically, "I'm building a wonderful cathedral! With every brick I lay, we go closer to creating a house of worship where individuals can come to terms with their spirituality and feel a connection to something bigger than themselves. Being a part of this effort is an honor.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
