A man's true character comes out when he's drunk. - Charlie Chaplin

"Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot."

"I don't think the real America is in New York or on the Pacific Coast; personally, I like the Middle West much better, places like North and South Dakota, Minneapolis and Saint Paul. There, I think, are the true Americans"

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

"A day without laughter is a day wasted."

"Perfect love is the most beautiful of all frustrations because it is more than one can express."
