Quote by Garrison Keillor

Summary

This quote suggests that humor and joy are present in the world, but often go unrecognized due to people's inability to embrace and express it. It implies that God creates moments of comedy, but humanity fails to appreciate or capture the essence of humor because many do not possess the necessary skill or inclination. It highlights the potential for laughter and amusement in life, giving insight into the playwright (God) and the actors (people) who struggle to fulfill their comedic roles effectively.
