I'm a parent. I think we're responsible for the problems that young people have. I believe that. I don't blame them for any of it. I blame us for what we haven't done as mothers and fathers, not sticking together as a unit.

More quotes by Denzel Washington
Dreams without goals, are just dreams and they ultimately fuel disappointment.
Denzel Washington
Thank God in advance for what's already yours.
Denzel Washington
I'm not a film buff. I don't watch a lot of movies.
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
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
I'm from around Tennessee. I ran away when I was 12 years old and I ain't never looked back.
Denzel Washington
Say what you really want to say.
Denzel Washington
When I did A Soldier's Story, I was very young and green and thought I knew everything-now I know I know everything!
Denzel Washington
We'll all retire from life at some point. The great thing about acting is you don't necessarily have to retire.
Denzel Washington
Acting, it's not my life, my children and my family, that's life. I'll get up every morning, God willing, for that.
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
The only reason I'm acting in films I direct is to get the money to make them, quite frankly, it's not what I'm interested in doing.
Denzel Washington
I still have my unemployment books and I remember when I worked for the sanitation department and the post office.
Denzel Washington
Hate put me in prison. Love's gonna bust me out.
Denzel Washington
At the end of the day, it's not about what you have or even what you've accomplished. It's about what you've done with those accomplishments. Its about who you've lifted up, who you've made better. It about what you've given back (23).
Denzel Washington
I think we're fascinated by gangsters and that whole lifestyle and crossing the line. We get sort of stuck in our normal lives, if you will, and you want to be bigger than life and I think people somehow live through these sorts of characters.
Denzel Washington
Goals on the road to achievement cannot be achieved without discipline and consistency.
Denzel Washington
Money doesn't buy happiness. Some people say it's a heck of a down payment, though.
Denzel Washington
I'm a logic monster, if things don't make sense I gotta make sense of them.
Denzel Washington
If you have an enemy, then learn and know your enemy, don't just be mad at him or her.
