"My faith helps me understand that circumstances don’t dictate my happiness, my inner peace." ― Denzel Washington Topic(s): Faith More From Denzel Washington "It’s simple: You get a part. You play a part. You play it well. You do your work and you go home. And what is wonderful about movies is that once they’re done, they belong to the people. Once you make it, it’s what they see. That’s where my head is at." "I had a lot of success from the start. I never really was tested for long periods of time. I got my first professional job while I was a senior in college. I signed with the William Morris Agency before I graduated." "My mother never gave up one me. I messed up in school so much they were sending me home, but my mother sent me right back."
