Denzel Washington
Got to be who you are in this world, no matter what.

Years ago, even prior to 9/11, I did a movie called The Siege. I did a lot of research with the FBI and the CIA. And I was amazed at that time (I guess we might all know it now) how little information they shared with each other. So after that, I'm not surprised by anything.
Denzel Washington
I've been fortunate. I don't pick scripts. Scripts pick me.
Denzel Washington
I even asked [Saniyya Sidney] why she wanted to be an actor and she said, I'm serious about this. These other little kids they want to play, and I don't have time for that.
Denzel Washington
I love research and being educated. It's a great job being able to step into all kinds of professions and into other people's shoes.

Say what you really want to say.
