The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Kerry Washington
- The breakdown of the black community, in order to maintain slavery, began with the breakdown of the black family. Men and women were not legally allowed to get married because you couldn’t have that kind of love. It might get in the way of the economics of slavery. Your children could be taken from you and literally sold down the river.
- I grew up in New York, so I fell in love with acting on a stage, not in front of a camera.
- I’m a person who’s always been politically active and passionate about people’s rights.
- You may not be thinking about politics, but politics is thinking about you.
- Shoes define how you walk in the world and how you stand: like, what is your posture in life?
- I’m here not just as an actress but as a woman, an African-American, a granddaughter of Ellis Island immigrants, a person who could not have afforded college without the help of student loans and as one of millions of volunteers working to re-elect President Obama!
- That’s what acting is – it’s about… having the courage to allow your audience into the private moments of your characters’ lives.
- Every actor you work with has a different method, same with the director. You have to figure out what your shared language is and how to best support each other, and also take care of yourself.
- One of the most amazing things about my job is that I have arguably, maybe not even arguably – definitively – the best boss on the planet. Shonda Rhimes is the best.
- I am co-writing a screenplay now and I’m working on the rights to another story I want to do. So I plan to produce and direct. So, for me, I don’t really feel that I am vulnerable to that sad baggage that comes with the business of filmmaking.
