Till the final years of his life, king of comedy, Charlie Chaplin, always responded to the question: "What according to you, is your masterpiece", by saying: "It's going to be the next one".
As long as one maintains the spirit to keep on challenging, there are really no deadlocks in life. It's not that we walk because there is a path, rather, it is because we walk that we can pave a path for ourselves.

喜劇王チャップリンは、晩年にいたるまで「あなたの最高傑作は？」という質問に対して、いつも「ネクスト・ワン（次の作品）」と答えたという。挑戦の魂に行き詰まりはない。道があるから歩くのではなく、歩くから道ができるのだ。
