What are some issues raised by Aristotle in Nicomachean Ethics with regards to laughter?
The closest I can find is:
"For one swallow does not make a spring, nor does on day; and so too one day, or a short time, does not make a man blessed and happy." - 1098a (Book 1, Chapter 6).
"And happiness is thought to depend on leisure; for we are busy that we may have leisure, and make war that we may live in peace." - (Book X, Chapter 7).
"Similarly, since amusement, every kind of relaxation, and laughter are pleasant, ridiculous things--men, words, or deeds--must also be pleasant...let this suffice for things that are pleasant; those that are painful will be obvious from the contraries of these.." (Book 1, Chapter 11).
