The Friendship of Einstein and Chaplin

History Daily

Albert Einstein and Charlie Chaplin happen to be two men who are both incredibly popular, but for very different reasons. While Einstein was the genius behind the E=mC2, Chaplin was best known for his funny antics and “silent” work in movies. The two were introduced at a dinner by a common friend and they became very good friends afterwards. This photo was taken at the premiere of City Lights back in 1931, which starred Chaplin. Einstein reportedly exclaimed that he was jealous of Chaplin’s fame ‘because without a word the world understands him, to which Chaplin replied, “But your fame is even greater… the world admires you when nobody understands you.”’
