Many of us are trying to lead multiple lives: child, mother, wife, lover, star, giving small doses of oxygen to each and imploding under the weight of so many competing roles. The women I have written in Bombshells struggle - sometimes hilariously, sometimes tragically - to bridge the chasm between the wilderness of their inner worlds and the demands of their outer worlds. And humour, in the end, is our saviour.
A lot of the stuff Kafka said he thought was hilariously funny.
Things are rarely just crazy enough to work, but they're frequently just crazy enough to fail hilariously.
Philosophy is an odd thing. When we use the word in everyday speech, you know, you sometimes hear it hilariously.
