Charlie Chaplin Quotes

Whether sage or fool, we must all struggle with life.

Men who think deeply say little in ordinary conversations.

You’ll never find rainbows if you’re looking down.

Wisdom usually grows up on us like calluses when we are old, gnarled and bent.

Whomever lives, gambles with life.

What do you want a meaning for? Life is a desire, not a meaning.

What a sad business, being funny.

We think too much and feel too little.

We must laugh in the face of our helplessness against the forces of nature – or go insane.

We can produce in abundance food and materials, and manufacture in mass production all the essentials and luxuries of life. Machinery should be a blessing to mankind and not a curse. Therefore, let us have shorter hours of labor and cheaper money. The purchasing power comes through wages. Then let us raise them to where each man can enjoy the blessings and the glory of science, which were not created for profit alone, but to serve humanity also.

We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other’s happiness, not by each other’s misery.

Wars, conflict, it’s all business. One murder makes a villain, millions a hero. Numbers sanctify.
