The basic essential of a great actor is that he loves himself in acting.
Charlie Chaplin

In this desperate way, I started many a comedy.
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.
Charlie Chaplin

My character of the Tramp, the millions of workers symbolized in that one figure.
Charlie Chaplin
