Laugh, or Cry?

“Heraclitus would shed tears whenever he went out in public- Democritus laughed. One saw the whole as a parade of miseries, the other of follies. And so, we should take a lighter view of things and bear with them with an easy spirit, for it is more human to laugh at life than to lament it.” – Seneca, On Tranquility Of Mind, 15.2
