December 10th, 8:00pm – Taking a break. I’m watching some of my favorite Denzel Washington films when I remembered his writing quote:
He’s right. My pen can convince more people than my fist. I use both wisely.

I think Denzel is amazing in “Titans” but my favorite still is “Man On Fire” with “Glory” a close second. I’m actually trying to think of a bad Denzel performance and I reallyu can’t…..he has so many great films under his belt….

Word’s are the smart choice. And I totally agree, they can be incredibly powerful. Wield your words wisely and beautifully, my friend.
I love a bit of Denzel. What’s your favourite film(s) of his? xx

Love Training Day. I hated the character, which is the film’s strong point. Flight is next on the list. Denzel played a smart man with many flaws. Last, Fences. I was told by Michael Hauge at a workshop this was one of Denzel’s best acting roles. I plan to watch it next. Thanks for asking Caz. 😎

Darnell, I haven’t thought of you as pugilistic. Surely just in self-defense, yes?

Absolutely. Maybe as Denzel…acting, look for good results.

And, of course, a Denzel break is ALWAYS a good thing, lol.
Don’t forget Training Day! (One of my favorites)

The jury is still out for me when it comes to this quote. I think the reason it’s true is because my writing reaches more people. I would have to spend a lot of time to beat up all these people that read my posts. Plus, my fists would be a lot more sore. However, I don’t know if people are convinced by writing anymore. They have their own opinions and they stick to it.

My question is where do people get their ideas from? Not mom, dad, or besties. I feel options and ideas come from media… reading. My honey writing reaches more than my bitter fist. 👊 I may not sway them completely, but I will have them thinking. As always, thanks for commenting!

Is very true, the fist can make people *say* they agree with you, but words can make them actually understand what you’re saying.
