What is wit (智慧)?

“An original idea. That can’t be too hard. The library must be full of them.” This was said by British actor and writer Stephen Fry. It’s funny because if an idea can be found in a library, then obviously it is not original. Clever and original ideas that also make us laugh are known as “wit”. It is a type of humour for which individuals often become famous.
