Patriotism is too deep a feeling to depict in the posing for a photograph.

I told him that it was very fine for well-fed, over-paid actors flaunting toughness at these deprived people, who are gentle and nice and, if ever tough, only so because of environment. I asked him how tough he would be if he were living the life that some of these unfortunate families must live. How easy for him, with five meals a day beneath that thrust-out chest with his muscles trained and perfect, trying to start something with these people. Of course they were not tough, but when it comes to four years of War, when it comes to losing an arm or a leg, then they are tough. But they are not going around looking for fights unless there is a reason.
Charlie ChaplinAnd I am going to have another opportunity. I am going to have a week-end with him at his home in Easton, a week-end with Wells at home, with just his family. That alone is worth the entire trip from Los Angeles to Europe.
Charlie ChaplinAs I began to love myself I found that anguish and emotional suffering are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth. Today, I know, this is “AUTHENTICITY”.
As I began to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody if I try to force my desires on this person, even though I knew the time was not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this person was me. Today I call it “RESPECT”.
As I began to love myself I stopped craving for a different life, and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow. Today I call it “MATURITY”.
As I began to love myself I understood that at any circumstance, I am in the right place at the right time, and everything happens at the exactly right moment. So I could be calm. Today I call it “SELF-CONFIDENCE”.
As I began to love myself I quit stealing my own time, and I stopped designing huge projects for the future. Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness, things I love to do and that make my heart cheer, and I do them in my own way and in my own rhythm. Today I call it “SIMPLICITY”.
As I began to love myself I freed myself of anything that is no good for my health – food, people, things, situations, and everything that drew me down and away from myself. At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism. Today I know it is “LOVE OF ONESELF”.
As I began to love myself I quit trying to always be right, and ever since I was wrong less of the time. Today I discovered that is “MODESTY”.
As I began to love myself I refused to go on living in the past and worrying about the future. Now, I only live for the moment, where everything is happening. Today I live each day, day by day, and I call it “FULFILLMENT”.
As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me and it can make me sick. But as I connected it to my heart, my mind became a valuable ally. Today I call this connection “WISDOM OF THE HEART”.
We no longer need to fear arguments, confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves or others. Even stars collide, and out of their crashing new worlds are born. Today I know “THAT IS LIFE”!

في المبالغة في الجد يكمن السخف.
Charlie Chaplinرفعت رأسي إلى النافذتين العلويتين. حيث كانت تجلس أمي، مكدودة،جائعة، وعقلها يفلت منها.كانتا مغلقتين الآن. لا تبوحان بشيء، ولا يبدو أنهما تكترثان للرجل الواقف طوال هذه المدةيحملق فيهما. ولكن صمتهما كان في الواقع يعبر عما هو أكثر من الكلمات.
Charlie Chaplinإنني لا أرى الفقر جذاباً، ولا بانياً للشخصية. فالفقر لم يعلمني شيئاً غير تشويه القيم والمقاييس، والتقدير المبالغ فيه لفضائل ومحاسن الأغنياء، والذين يطلق عليهم صف الطبقات الأرقى.
Charlie Chaplinكأن كل ما حدث لي في الماضي حلم. وكأن كل ما حدث لي في أمريكا هو فقط الواقع. ومع ذلك كان ينتابني طوال الوقت إحساس غير مريح بأن هذه الشوارع الفقيرة الرقيقة لديها القدرة حتى الآن على أن تطبق علي بيأسها كالرمال الناعمة.
