More quotes by Charlie Chaplin
A man's true character comes out when he's drunk.
Charlie Chaplin
If you're really truthful with yourself, it's a wonderful guidance.
Charlie Chaplin
My character of the Tramp, the millions of workers symbolized in that one figure.
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
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
Simplicity of approach is always best.
Charlie Chaplin
The glamour of it all! New York! America!
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
We might as well die as to go on living like this.
Charlie Chaplin
By simple common sense I don't believe in God, in none.
Charlie Chaplin
I am not religious in the dogmatic sense... I neither believe nor disbelieve in anything.
Charlie Chaplin
I had no idea of the character. But the moment I was dressed, the clothes and the make-up made me feel the person he was. I began to know him, and by the time I walked onto the stage he was fully born.
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
The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men cries out for universal brotherhood for the unity of us all.
Charlie Chaplin
Remember, you can always stoop and pick up nothing.
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 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
This is a ruthless world and one must be ruthless to cope with it.
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
Hair is vitally personal to children. They weep vigorously when it is cut for the first time no matter how it grows, bushy, straight or curly, they feel they are being shorn of a part of their personality.
Charlie Chaplin
