It's most important that you surround yourself with positivity always, and have it in your mind at all times.
I always feed myself positivity. I turn to anything that teaches good, that teaches strength, and that you can make it. I swear to you that those kinds of thoughts come alive in your body and in anything you touch because your energy goes into everything you touch, everything you share and everything you speak. So, it's most important that you surround yourself with positivity always, and have it in your mind at all times.
Forgiveness is important in families, especially when there are so many secrets that need to be healed - for the most part, every family's got them.
It's so important to forgive people for their wrongs in your own life because every bit of it was for a reason-it was to form the person that you are.
The most important thing that I learned in growing up is that forgiveness is something that, when you do it, you free yourself to move on.
The thing about using other people's money is they're going to set the rules.
There are a lot of people who have dreams, goals, and hopes, but there aren't a lot who get to see them realized.
The Bible says that all things work together for the good of those who love the Lord and are called according to his purpose. I believe that. Because I've seen it all work.
What do you spend $200 million on, with a film? I can't wrap my brain around that one.
What is important to me about this movie is that the stories and messages are for anyone. Anyone who needs to learn about forgiveness will enjoy it no matter who they are.
My first show was called 'I Know I've Been Changed' in '92. I tried to do this show for years and years. It kept failing over and over and over again. Every time I went out to do the show, nobody showed up. I was like, 'What is this about?'
You don't try to do anything that Morgan Freeman does. He was the voice of God in a movie. That's Morgan Freeman!
My life has always been - there's never been a middle. Either I had or I didn't. Either I was up or I was down.
I want a lot of people to see my movies. More black people. More white people. I want to make that connection.
