Charles 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.

In the end, everything is a gag.

Nothing is permanent in this wicked world - not even our troubles.

 

Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself.

Movies are a fad. Audiences really want to see live actors on a stage.

The most wasted day of all is that in which we have not laughed.

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