Charlie ChaplinI should like to help everyone if possible; Jew, Gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each otherโs happiness, not by each otherโs misery. We donโt want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone, and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful.
Charlie Chaplin
