I worked with Sidney Lumet years ago, and we had a long rehearsal process, and he would tape out the entire set on the stage, so I stole that from him.

We live in a time when people give up too easy.
Denzel Washington
The time to worrying about flying is when you're on the ground. When you're up in the air, it's too late. No point in worrying about it then.
Denzel Washington
Growing up I didn't watch movies.
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
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
The secret to a happy marriage? Do whatever your wife tells you. 'Yes, dear.' And breathe.
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.

There is nothing good or bad, except by comparison (209) - Effort is Everything by Bud Selig
Denzel Washington
Got to be who you are in this world, no matter what.
Denzel Washington
I'm a logic monster, if things don't make sense I gotta make sense of them.
Denzel Washington
I think the bottom of the totem pole is African-American women, or women of colour. I think they get the least opportunities in Hollywood.
Denzel Washington
When you look in one direction where Troy's chair was, you could see out through the yard across the street, there was an old cork bar advertisement for five cents. We wanted it to feel like this was real life [in Fences] and that it extended blocks and blocks.
Denzel Washington
The poorest people are the sweetest people.
Denzel Washington
Say what you really want to say.
Denzel Washington
I didn't want to audition the kids so much I just wanted to talk to them because I like seeing how they are because their mothers usually mess them up with practice. So, I'd rather talk to them and see how they respond. I just throw things at them and see how they can hit the ball back, and Saniyya Sidney was good.
Denzel Washington
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.
Denzel Washington
When my oldest boy was about 14, I started to talk to him about some of the mistakes I made in life, just to put a few dents in that shiny armor.
Denzel Washington
I say luck is when an opportunity comes along and you're prepared for it.
Denzel Washington
I always say the time to worry about flying is when you're on the ground. If you don't trust the captain, don't go.
Denzel Washington
My role 14 years ago in Richard III - that was the first time I played a bad guy and learned a lot about it - they have all the fun!
