Original Note:
This exact conversation did not happen. It is a second-hand account of János Plesch. Charlie Chaplin himself ascribed the quotation about fame to Albert Einstein’s son. The strongest and earliest evidence for this incident appeared in a 1933 article. https://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/11/05/chaplin-einstein/?amp=1
