That's what I tell young actors. You don't have to compromise. Go do some theater and wait for an appropriate role.
Denzel Washington
You pray for rain, you gotta deal with the mud too. That's a part of it.
Denzel Washington
I am not going to bury my son! My son is going to bury me!
Denzel Washington
What it taught me was forgiveness. It taught me that when people present themselves in a certain way, there's probably some back story or issue or reason for the way that they are. It's not you. It's them. And a lot of times, its about something that's completely out of their control
Denzel Washington
Luck is where opportunity meets preparation.
Denzel Washington
I'm a logic monster, if things don't make sense I gotta make sense of them.

Michelle Pfeiffer hasn't been finding a lot of work recently because she doesn't like what a woman her age is offered. That's a real double standard. You get Sean Connery, who gets older and older, still playing opposite young ladies, but it doesn't work the other way around.
Denzel Washington
Goals on the road to achievement cannot be achieved without discipline and consistency.
Denzel Washington
A film is just like a muffin. You make it. You put it on the table. One person might say, 'Oh, I don't like it.' One might say it's the best muffin ever made. One might say it's an awful muffin. It's hard for me to say. It's for me to make the muffin.
Denzel Washington
I say luck is when an opportunity comes along and you're prepared for it.
Denzel Washington
The poorest people are the sweetest people.
Denzel Washington
Say what you really want to say.
Denzel Washington
I just try to be honest and true to the character and play the part.
Denzel Washington
[Martin] Scorsese probably could have directed Schindler's List and [Steven] Spielberg probably could have directed Goodfellas. But it's as much to do with the difference in culture as it is with race.
Denzel Washington
I'm from around Tennessee. I ran away when I was 12 years old and I ain't never looked back.
Denzel Washington
I've worked in a factory. I was a garbage man. I worked in a post office. It's not that long ago. I like to think that I'm just a regular guy.
Denzel Washington
I'll be working with Ridley's [Scott] brother, Tony, again, someone who needless to say we've had a great amount of success together. I trust him - so I won't have to think about it or I'll try not to.
Denzel Washington
What's a celebrity anyway? Paris Hilton's a celebrity. I'm just a working actor.
Denzel Washington
So the desire you have, that itch that you have to be whatever it is you want to be ... that itch, that desire for good is God’s proof to you sent already to indicate that it’s yours. You already have it. Claim it.
Denzel Washington
