And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad.

But here’s the thing...

"I didn’t get the job. But here’s the thing, I didn’t quit. I didn’t fall back. I walked out of there to prepare for the next audition, and the next audition, and the next audition. I prayed and I prayed, but I continued to fail, and I failed, and failed but it didn’t matter because you know what? There’s an old saying, you hang around a barbershop long enough, sooner or later you will get a haircut. You will catch a break.

Last year I did a play called Fences on Broadway and I won a Tony Award... And here’s the kicker, it was at the Court Theater; it was at the same theater where I failed that first audition thirty years prior."

-Wise Words by Mr. Denzel Washington

on the power of waiting

"Waiting... far from being something passive, was the most active state of all. In its heart lay the beginning and end of all action. In it lurked the exact moment to strike.

Look... the ball comes flying in whether you like it or not, doesn't it? Then all you can do is wait for it come to you. To wait, this is the traditional Japanese style. Wait. Teach him to wait.”

Here... in this here place, we flesh; flesh that weeps, laughs; flesh that dances on bare feet in grass. Love it. Love it hard.

Quote

When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before.
