More quotes by Charlie Chaplin
I've arrived at the age where a platonic friendship can be sustained on the highest moral plane.
Charlie Chaplin
That is why, no matter how desperate the predicament is, I am always very much in earnest about clutching my cane, straightening my derby hat and fixing my tie, even though I have just landed on my head.
Charlie Chaplin
In the light of our egos, we are all dethroned monarchs
Charlie Chaplin
Simplicity of approach is always best.
Charlie Chaplin
Soldiers, in the name of democracy, let us all unite!
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
I am not religious in the dogmatic sense... I neither believe nor disbelieve in anything.
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
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
The saddest thing I can imagine is to get used to luxury.
Charlie Chaplin
My character of the Tramp, the millions of workers symbolized in that one figure.
Charlie Chaplin
As for politics, I’m an anarchist. I hate governments and rules and fetters. Can’t stand caged animals. People must be free.
Charlie Chaplin
As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me and it can make me sick. But as I connected it to my heart, my mind became a valuable ally. Today I call this connection WISDOM OF THE HEART.
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
Life could be wonderful if people would leave you alone.
Charlie Chaplin
Sound has spoiled the most ancient of the world's arts, the art of pantomime, and has canceled out the great beauty that is silence.
Charlie Chaplin
This is a ruthless world and one must be ruthless to cope with it.
Charlie Chaplin
The building is a special place because of its architecture But it's people who make it special by participating in it.
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
Words seem so futile, so feeble. You are all such lovely, beautiful people ... thank you.
Charlie Chaplin
