John has shared incredible quotes & the wisdom that can be found online.

As a photographer for Dragoncon, I was fortunate to go back stage and meet both John and his wife, Jennifer Wade. He was the kindest person.

I knew if given the chance to meet him I could either get the shot or ask him a question to hear his wisdom.

I made the decision to get the shot and captured this shot right before going on stage.

 

A wonderful thing about true laughter is that it just destroys any kind of system of dividing people.” – John Cleese
