When you’re feeling down and out, find power in words that can change your life. And where is a better place to find them than in the movies from Denzel Washington? It’s what I call philosophies of life. "Every man needs a code to live by." - The Equalizer (2014)
In an interview, Denzel was asked about Social media. “Turn it off. That’s what I would tell people.” It is addictive, he said. “If you don’t think you’re addicted, and I’m talking about anyone from the highest to the lowest, turn it off for a week.
It’s human nature to want to be liked, but now we want to be liked by SIXTEEN MILLION, and some of us will do anything to be liked.
We would always do anything to be liked, but it was for the person in front of us. But now it’s to be liked by 16 million people you don’t know.
After four decades of making movies, Denzel Washington had many movie quotes-- philosophies of life to live by.

Finally, Denzel Washington was asked about Fake News and the Media.
Reporter, “What about all the fake news, they had a story about you?”
Denzel said, If you don’t read the news, you will be uninformed, and if you do read it you will be misinformed.”
Reporter, “So what do you do?”
“That’s a good question. What is the long-term effect of too much information? One of the effects is the need to be first, not even to be true anymore. So, what a responsibility you, the media, all have. To tell the truth not just to be first, but to tell the truth. We live in a society now where it is just about being first. Who cares about the truth. Get it out there. We don’t care who it hurts. We don’t care who we destroy. We don’t care if it’s true or not; say it, and sell it.
Remember, you will get good at anything you practice even if it’s BULLSHIT.
