Denzel Washington: (on turning down the lead role in Love Field) It was nigger this and nigger that. I wasn't going to be one of many niggers in a film.
(edit)
Denzel Washington: (on refusing to do a love scene with Julia Roberts in The Pelican Brief) Black women are not often seen as objects of desire on film. And they have always been my core audience.
(edit)
Denzel Washington: (on actors who complain about the pressure of fame) It's only acting. Pressure is being a 20-year-old kid in Iraq with a gun slung over his shoulder.
(edit)
Denzel Washington: (on his addiction to heroin when he was just 14-years-old) When everyone was getting on with their lives, I was doing everything in my powers to shorten mine. In those situations everyone gets a tap on the shoulder at some point. Mine was starting to listen when I realised my mother really cared about me.
