A moment of synchronicity - I also wrote about Cage and laughter this week, and wrote a poem in response to it! In another interview (on I've Got A Secret) the host asked him if it was ok for people to laugh at his music, and in his beautiful, caring way, he simply said: "Of course, I consider laughter preferable to tears." Love the Kant quote you responded to (I have an odd soft-spot for Kant), and really liked your poem too! :-)
