More from Charlie Chaplin
"A tramp, a gentleman, a poet, a dreamer, a lonely fellow, always hopeful of romance and adventure."
"I am a comedian, not a politician."
"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."
"I have lived a full life, and I have no regrets."
"Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself."
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.
