More quotes by 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
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.
Denzel Washington
You don't have to kill somebody to play a murderer. You have to read the script and interpret the character.

One good thing about acting in film is that it's good therapy.
Denzel Washington
As the filmmaker, yes, I have to look out for everybody. But I don't have to know everybody's approach.
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.

Revenge is a meal best served cold.

It could be that it's not that different. Circumstances, no matter what the color is, could be similar.
Denzel Washington

Denzel Washington
If it ain't on a page, it ain't on a stage.
Denzel Washington
We know what hair smells like when a hot comb hits it. That's a cultural thing. We know what that smells like on Sunday mornings, usually church-related or something. In my house, it was getting ready for church and your sister was getting her hair fried.
Denzel Washington
The Bible says faith without works is nothing so destiny is great, fate is great, faith is great - but you still have to work at it. I don't just sit at home and wait for it all to unfold.
Denzel Washington
I'm a positive person, so I don't get bogged down with it. If you're expecting that, if you wall in that, if you practice that, then you'll attract what you fear.
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
I just try to be honest and true to the character and play the part.
Denzel Washington
Any good piece of material like Shakespeare ought to be open to reinterpretation.
Denzel Washington
There's always got to be room for what you might call benign corruption. Nobody blames a man who steals food to feed his starving children, but on the other hand, somebody who picks up a badge and takes an oath to serve and protect we do expect a certain level of essential honesty.
Denzel Washington
My ultimate life dream project is my kids. My family.
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!
Denzel Washington
My mother used to tell me man gives the award, God gives the reward. I don't need another plaque.
