"La vie ne cesse pas d'être drôle quand les gens meurent pas plus qu'elle ne cesse d'être sérieuse quand les gens rient."

George Bernard Shaw

Simplified Meaning:

Life is always a mix of serious and funny moments, no matter what happens. Just because something sad, like a death, occurs, it doesn't mean that life stops having funny or happy things. Similarly, even when people are laughing and having fun, there are still serious issues and responsibilities in life. Imagine attending a funeral; it's a sad occasion, yet sometimes people share funny memories about the person who passed away, which brings laughter. Or think about times when you're having fun with friends; you still have important things like work or family responsibilities to think about. This idea helps us remember that life is always a blend of different emotions and experiences.
