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
Writing is a weapon and it’s more powerful than a fist could ever be.
Denzel Washington
[Russel Crowe] has been through a lot and had a lot of success. No one knew who he was when I worked with him 12 years ago. He's just come off a great film in Australia- Romper Stomper - and so it was good to see him again. Obviously, I'd seen him since.
Denzel Washington
When you make a movie it's always interesting, because you end up in places you never would as a normal visitor or tourist.
Denzel Washington
You don't have to kill somebody to play a murderer. You have to read the script and interpret the character.
Denzel Washington
Cursed be the ground for our sake. Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for us. For out of the ground we were taken, for the dust we are and to the dust we shall return.

My father was a minister for 50 years with Pentecostal Church of God in Christ. We prayed about everything, every day, then he always said, Amen. God is love. I thought God is love was one word. Like Godislove. And it took me a long time to learn what that really meant.
Denzel Washington
You have to grab moments when they happen. I like to improvise and ad lib.
Denzel Washington
When you trust the director you want to trust his or her choices. I don't want to say, 'No, I don't like this girl or that guy, when the director really loves them. No, you want to go with what the director likes.

Hate put me in prison. Love's gonna bust me out.
