Charlie Chaplin

Continuing our series in honour of the British icon Charlie Chaplin. Some wise and profound words from him below in such times.

We need peace, not war.

Our thoughts are with all of the Ukrainian people.

I feel I am privileged to express a hope. The hope is this: that we shall have peace throughout the world, that we shall abolish wars and settle all international differences at the conference table, that we shall abolish all atom and hydrogen bombs before they abolish us. 

The future of the modern world demands modern thinking. Therefore, let us use the full force of our intelligence instead of obsolete homicidal methods in settling our international differences.
