More quotes by Charlie Chaplin
This is a story of a period between two World Wars - an interim in which Insanity cut loose. Liberty took a nose dive, and Humanity was kicked around somewhat.
Charlie Chaplin
All I need to make a comedy is a park, a policeman and a pretty girl.
Charlie Chaplin
One murder makes a villain millions, a hero.
Charlie Chaplin
More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness.
Charlie Chaplin
We might as well die as to go on living like this.
Charlie Chaplin
Nothing in life is permanent, not even one's troubles.
Charlie Chaplin
I'm an old sinner. Nothing shocks me.
Charlie Chaplin
Man as an individual is a genius. But men in the mass form the headless monster, a great, brutish idiot that goes where prodded.
Charlie Chaplin

Charlie Chaplin
Life is a play that does not allow testing. So, sing, cry, dance, laugh and live intensely, before the curtain closes and the piece ends with no applause.
Charlie Chaplin
Life is laughter when seen in a long shot, but it is a tragedy when seen in a close-up.
Charlie Chaplin
Simplicity of approach is always best.
Charlie Chaplin

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

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
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
Life is a beautiful, magnificent thing, even to a jellyfish.
Charlie Chaplin
Words seem so futile, so feeble. You are all such lovely, beautiful people ... thank you.
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
