Thats what my mother told me the eighth or ninth time I lost an Academy Award, Washington said.
She said, Boy, you are going to travel the world and preach to millions of people.
She didnt say, Youre going to get back in school.
She didnt say, Youre going to become an Academy Award [winner].
She didnt say any of those things.
She said, Youre going to travel the world and preach to millions of people.'
I dont care what anyone thinks.
See, talking about the fear part of it you cant talk like that and win Oscars.

You cant say that in this town.
He continued: Im free now.
Its not talked about in this town.
Its not talked about.
Its not talked about.
But that doesnt mean people in Hollywood dont believe.
Theres no such thing called Hollywood anyway.
What does that even mean?
That to me means a street called Hollywood Boulevard.
Its not like we all meet somewhere and discuss what we believe.
So I dont know how many other actors have faith.
I didnt do no poll.
How would I find that out?
I mean, theres no Church Actor Meetings Ive been to.
