More quotes by Charlie Chaplin

Image
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
Image
I am what I am: an individual, unique and different, with a lineal history of ancestral promptings and urgings, a history of dreams, desires, and of special experiences, all of which I am the sum total.
Charlie Chaplin

Remember, you can always stoop and pick up nothing.
Charlie Chaplin
Image
Man is an animal with primary instincts of survival. Consequently his ingenuity has developed first and his soul afterwards. The progress of science is far ahead of man's ethical behavior.
Charlie Chaplin
Image
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
Image
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
Image
There are more valid facts and details in works of art than there are in history books.
Charlie Chaplin
Image
Think about yourself at least once in your life otherwise you may miss the best comedy in this world.
Charlie Chaplin
Image
All my pictures are built around the idea of getting in trouble and so giving me the chance to be desperately serious in my attempt to appear as a normal little gentleman.
Charlie Chaplin
Image
I suppose that's one of the ironies of life doing the wrong thing at the right moment.
Charlie Chaplin
Image
Despair is a narcotic. It lulls the mind into indifference.
Charlie Chaplin
Image
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.
