Two homers: Tragedy and Comedy

joeposnanski.substack.com

“To me, tragedy is if I cut my finger. That’s tragedy. It bleeds, and I’ll cry, and I’ll run around, and I’ll go into Mount Sinai for a day and a half. And to me comedy is if you walk into an open sewer and die. What do I care?'“

— Mel Brooks as the 2000 Year Old Man
