You can’t break me because you didn’t make me.
Denzel Washington
Thank God in advance for what's already yours.
Denzel Washington
I just do what I feel and what I like. I don't necessarily censor or feel an obligation to have a particular moral standard - I'm willing to wallow in the mud, if necessary. It appears as if there seems to be a consistency in result, but maybe that has as much to do with the roles I choose as it does with how I play them. I do what pleases me.
Denzel Washington
Luck is where opportunity meets preparation.
Denzel Washington
It's not easy for me to admit that I've been standing in the same place for 18 years.

People have said to me for a long time, Man you're funny. I say, Well, I'm quick, but being funny on purpose, take after take - that's why I said for me it was new territory, and so by improvising something might come out that might be good. And it's film, so they can cut it if it isn't.
Denzel Washington
Don't get all sentimental on me, Makes me think I'm gonna die.
Denzel Washington

A part of me still says, 'Maybe, Denzel, you're supposed to preach. Maybe you're still compromising.' I've had an opportunity to play great men and, through their words, to preach. I take what talent I've been given seriously, and I want to use it for good.
Denzel Washington
I work hard for the audience. It's entertainment. I don't need validation.
Denzel Washington
As an actor in the theater you're taught that you never play a bad guy. You have to love who you are. You can't say, Oh, I'm a bad guy. How do you play that?
Denzel Washington
I am not going to bury my son! My son is going to bury me!
Denzel Washington
I have a new respect for filmmakers, that's for sure, 'cause it's not easy. If I'm allowed to, I'll be directing for the rest of my life. I love the process.
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.
Denzel Washington
I wasn't allowed to go to movies when I was kid my father was a minister. 101 Dalmatians and King of Kings, that was the extent of it.
Denzel Washington
Religion to me is when man gets ahold of spirituality: My god is right, yours is wrong. Religion to me is the human condition. If you're a Muslim, you can't be a Christian. That to me is religion.
Denzel Washington
Hate put me in prison. Love's gonna bust me out.
Denzel Washington
A sociopath will do anything to win. Anything.
