What’s life without a bit of silliness in it? In true fashion of these funny quotes you’re about to read, the answer should be along the lines of ‘a serious one.’ Yet, what we truly had in mind with this question is this - a life without at least a bit of silliness is bland, boring, and hardly digestible. After all, when you turn everything and everyone (including yourself!) into a serious matter, everything starts to seem so grave and looming. So, if you catch yourself feeling like that, best read one or two silly quotes! That’s why we have made this list - so silly inspirational quotes will always be at the ready for you when you need them.

In fact, some of these phrases are quotes about silliness itself, like the famous quotes from Einstein or Handey. Turns out even silliness cannot be taken too seriously! Then, there are some smart aphorisms, short sayings, and snarky comments of which you might’ve never thought before, but once they are in front of you, you just get them instantly. Then there are, of course, silly love quotes. Because love is plenty of things, including, but not limited to, silliness, too. And lastly, a group of impactful yet silly motivational quotes - because if you’re a bit like us, you’ll agree that motivation doesn't necessarily come with a furrowed brow or a dire forewarning. Sometimes you just need to see things from a different perspective, so why not choose silly!

With the accolades dedicated to silly quotes nearing their end, it is probably time for you to actually check them out. You know where to find them, right? Once you are there, be sure to give the best quotes a thumbs up (and a click on the arrow button pointing upwards) and share this article with your friends!
