More quotes by 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
I am not religious in the dogmatic sense... I neither believe nor disbelieve in anything.
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
Nothing in life is permanent, not even one's troubles.
Charlie Chaplin
I don't believe that the public knows what it wants this is the conclusion that I have drawn from my career.
Charlie Chaplin
Think about yourself at least once in your life otherwise you may miss the best comedy in this world.
Charlie Chaplin
One murder makes a villain millions, a hero.
Charlie Chaplin
Time is the best author. It always writes the perfect ending.
Charlie Chaplin
Life could be wonderful if people would leave you alone.
Charlie Chaplin
Where words leave off, gesture begins. Don't we speak of a person being speechless with rage, dancing with impatience, setting his teeth? The final motions of the soul are speechless, animal, grotesque, or of an incomparable beauty.
Charlie Chaplin
Your naked body should only belong to those who fall in love with your naked soul.
Charlie Chaplin
The kingdom of God is within man, not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you!
Charlie Chaplin
There are more valid facts and details in works of art than there are in history books.
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
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
Have them all shot. I don't want any of my workers dissatisfied.
Charlie Chaplin
3 is a prime, 5 is a prime, 7 is a prime, 9 is the next prime after 8.
Charlie Chaplin
In the end, everything is a gag.
Charlie Chaplin
You'll never find rainbows, If you're looking down...
Charlie Chaplin
