Quotes
Wars, conflict, it's all business. "One murder makes a villain. Millions a hero". Numbers sanctify.
Charlie Chaplin, CC BY-SA 4.0
I am at peace with God; my conflict is with man.
Charlie Chaplin, CC BY-SA 4.0
I am for people. I can't help it.
Charlie Chaplin, CC BY-SA 4.0
I remain just one thing, and one thing only — and that is a clown. It places me on a far higher plane than any politician.
Charlie Chaplin, CC BY-SA 4.0
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.

All I need to make a comedy is a park, a policeman and a pretty girl.
