"Nothing in this Life is Permanent, not even our Problems” – Charlie Chaplin
“Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.”
Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin KBE once regaled an audience with a jest.
A ripple of laughter cascaded through the crowd.
Upon its retelling, only a smattering chuckled.
When he said it the third time, silence enveloped the room.
Then, with grace, he imparted these poignant words:
“If you can’t laugh and laugh at the same joke, why do you cry and cry at the same pain and sorrow?”
In each passing moment, seek solace and joy.
Charlie Chaplin left behind an enduring legacy, his words resonating profoundly without inflicting harm. They serve as a poignant reminder of his lasting influence.
Here are three timeless quotes from the one and only Charlie Chaplin, regarded as the greatest showman of all time.
