"A day without laughter is a day wasted."
"I don't believe in anything, but I believe in everything. I believe in the human spirit, in kindness, in beauty, in joy. I believe in the power of laughter, and I believe in the power of tears."
"It isn't the ups and downs that make life difficult; it's the jerks."
"More than machinery, we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness."
"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."
About Charlie Chaplin (1889-1977)
English comic actor and silent-film auteur whose Tramp character defined early Hollywood and whose The Great Dictator (1940) satirized Hitler. Closely associated with Buster Keaton (silent-comedy peer of equal stature) and Harold Lloyd (third silent-comedy giant). For an intellectual contrast, see J. Edgar Hoover, FBI director (1924-1972) — Hoover pursued Chaplin for years on suspected communist sympathies, leading to the 1952 revocation of Chaplin's US re-entry permit and his Swiss exile — Hoover represented the McCarthy-era national-security state that was the institutional opposite of Chaplin's pro-immigrant Tramp humanism.
