More quotes by Charlie Chaplin
We think too much and feel too little.
Charlie Chaplin
I remain just one thing, and one thing only - and that is a clown. It places me on a far higher plane than any politician.
Charlie Chaplin
Smile, though your heart is aching Smile, even though it's breaking When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by If you smile through your pain and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow, You'll see the sun come shining through for you.
Charlie Chaplin
Had I known of the actual horrors of the German concentration camps, I could not have made The Great Dictator, I could not have made fun of the homicidal insanity of the Nazis.
Charlie Chaplin
Despair is a narcotic. It lulls the mind into indifference.
Charlie Chaplin
Beauty is an omnipresence of death and loveliness, a smiling sadness that we discern in nature and all things, a mystic communion that the poet feels.
Charlie Chaplin
I hope we shall abolish war and settle all differences at the conference table I hope we shall abolish all hydrogen and atom bombs before they abolish us first.
Charlie Chaplin
You'll never find rainbows, If you're looking down...
Charlie Chaplin

Charlie Chaplin

Charlie Chaplin
Unless I write every day, I don't feel I deserve my dinner.
Charlie Chaplin
Let us fight to free the world! To do away with national barriers! To do away with greed, with hate and intolerance! Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
Charlie Chaplin
So when I cease to be I want to go back...to the sea! Oh for the life of a sardine! That is the life for me!
Charlie Chaplin
Don’t fight for slavery! Fight for liberty! [...] You, the people, have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
Charlie Chaplin
In the work of the greatest geniuses, humble beginnings will reveal themselves somewhere, but one cannot trace the slightest sign of them in Shakespeare ... I am not concerned with who wrote the works of Shakespeare ... but I can hardly think it was the Stratford boy. Whoever wrote them had an aristocratic attitude.
Charlie Chaplin
I'm an old sinner. Nothing shocks me.
Charlie Chaplin
My technique is the outcome of thinking for myself, of my own logic and approach it is not borrowed from what others are doing.
Charlie Chaplin
Why not? After all, it belongs to him.
Charlie Chaplin
