    watching the lady in England being racist on youtube made me sick to think we still live in times where people hearts are as black as coal
    fail to understand instead of helping one another people just care for themselves. for every good deed there's bad that goes along with for that i understand , still makes me sad to see..anyways enjoy this motivation speech , very moving..;)

    A man who spent his entire career becoming famous by reaching out to us in silence in the end, leaves us all silenced with his voice.

    its a shame a speech with words that are so true, a video clear as black as white , people still ignore the hungry as the rich becomes richer the poor become poorer
    as long i see the decency in people i know life will be a better place, someday

    Old, over-rated. Too altruistic for my liking.

    We are meaningless from any perspective but our own, and it doesn't matter whether we live in harmony or tear each other limb from limb for stupid reasons. Nuke the whales and piss on dreams.

    I watched a documentary recently which showed that Adolf Hitler adored Charlie Chaplin, had the same birthday as him and copied his moustache

    I will say, Charlie Chaplin was a man who knew how to eat a shoe.

    If the woman on the train clicked on the link she'd last 3 seconds.
    "Is borin innit and all bollox roight!"

    Some people are just brain dead and can't be reasoned with.

    The woman on the train didn't look all there tbh. And City Lights is much better than the Great Dictator.
