The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Isaiah Washington
- Everything is not black-and-white. I’m really interested in the gray area – not justifying it, not glorifying it, not condoning it, but at least having people see there’s a genesis for every event in our lives. There’s some divine order to it, whether it’s ugly or beautiful.
- I’m no longer going to play thugs or debauched cops that I can’t possibly make complex characters. I’m bigger than that. I owe too much to too many good people at the Goodman, Arena and Playwrights Horizons.
- Even if I’m playing a bad guy, I work hard to make him multi-leveled and interesting.
- Not just art for art’s sake, but I want to have films out there that will provoke authentic, holistic conversations about the human condition. And not provide the easy answers, but put it out there.
- The whole time I was on ‘Grey’s,’ I’m still reconciling myself to my 11-year-old son, because he never saw me during that time. By the time he got up, he’d see a dent in his pillow, but by the time I got home, he was already asleep. So for three years, he had a daddy that he never saw because I had to work.
- I’ve written a book; I’ve become a better husband and father because I’m home every day. My connection to the Hollywood world has only been through Facebook.
- I’ve been so incredibly blessed. I’ve worked with some of the greatest professionals in town. I stood at the Golden Globes.
- I would still work with Mel Gibson! He’s talented, man! Come on, he came up with ‘Apocalypto,’ man! I want to work with this guy. I’ve worked with Steven Seagal. He’s out of his mind. I mean, I’ve worked with Spike Lee for four films. I’ve worked with some people that you can say are right there teetering between genius and madness.
- I’m a human being first and foremost, and I have something to say that I think is worthwhile. ‘Blue Caprice’ is just the second installment of so much more coming.
- Humanity is in my heart. Do I suffer fools? No. Am I a stickler for my profession? Yes. I am a task master? Yes. My military background, football background, I’m a team player all the way, and I love winning.
