Your Pain May Give Laugh To Somebody But Your Laugh Shouldn't Give Pain To Anybody
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
Why not? After all, it belongs to him.
Charlie Chaplin
Life is a beautiful, magnificent thing, even to a jellyfish.
Charlie Chaplin
The saddest thing I can imagine is to get used to luxury. [and therefore not appreciate it fully or be grateful for it every moment.]
Charlie Chaplin
All I need to make a comedy is a park, a policeman and a pretty girl.
Charlie Chaplin
my lips never know my problem they just always smile
Charlie Chaplin
I do not have much patience with a thing of beauty that must be explained to be understood. If it does need additional interpretation by someone other than the creator, then I question whether it has fulfilled its purpose.
Charlie Chaplin
Life is laughter when seen in a long shot, but it is a tragedy when seen in a close-up.
Charlie Chaplin

Charlie Chaplin
In the light of our egos, we are all dethroned monarchs
Charlie Chaplin
Let us fight to free the world!
Charlie Chaplin
The mirror is my best friend because when I cry it never laughs.
Charlie Chaplin
I suppose that's one of the ironies of life doing the wrong thing at the right moment.
Charlie Chaplin
I am not a political man and I have no political convictions. I am an individual and a believer in liberty. That is all the politics I have. On the other hand I am not a super-patriot. Super-patriotism leads to Hitlerism - and we've had our lesson there. I don't want to create a revolution - I just want to create a few more films.
Charlie Chaplin
In this book I do not intend to give a blow-by-blow description of a sex bout: I find them inartistic, clinical and unpoetic. The circumstances that lead up to sex I find more interesting.
Charlie Chaplin
The glamour of it all! New York! America!
Charlie Chaplin
Simplicity of approach is always best.
Charlie Chaplin
There are more valid facts and details in works of art than there are in history books.
Charlie Chaplin
My prodigious sin was, and still is, being a non-conformist.
Charlie Chaplin
