[@1hurricanejr]

That "see you at work" closing was colder than dropping the mic

[@anthonyclarke2253]

Real talk.

Kenneth U. Caines only Denzel could make it that cold!

This man is more than an icon. I'm actually speechless...

[@ghorbani]

GOAT

[@Oneironaut9]

"Ease is a greater threat to progress than hardship." so true.

[@mattanderson861]

No truer words have been spoken. Denzel is a class act.

[@Rubrick23.]

Two guns and the magnificent seven were pretty bad. So yes, he has. I've seen all of his movies furtlcity was pretty bad cult classic

[@Rubrick23.]

@E A well he cheated on his wife with Gabriel union! Do you know the man on a personal level? Everyone is only human. He's a great actor but I say that without knowing the man. But to say beyond that is simply foolish

[@patrickmbugua777]

Virtuosity was bad......

[@kesavvzD]

@@Rubrick23. wait he really cheated wit union?? Or is that just a rumor? I aint never heard of that

[@Tilesandfabrics]

[@kanadiidawhusein9030]

See you at work Maaaaaaan I felt that 😔🙌 the best Denzel Washington Great Individual ! ! 💜

[@User-iw5go]

This man says it, in under 2 minutes and a half he says what people need to hear, what I need to hear. I can't belive this, it must be shown to people who gave up. it must be shown again and again at people who choose the easy way (the wrong way). This is a good stuff. Denzel I'll never forget that, Thanks You.

[@angeltroncoso2589]

I love the ending when he said see you at work.

[@kejuwanoyoro8508]

Love the way Regina nodded like Word

[@WiseAilbhean]

You know when a speech moves you, when you are slumped laying in bed watching the speech on the phone and you are just in the laziest of position but yet you are compelled to clap as if you are wide awake alert and sitting in that audience. When something is so moving you involuntarily do as if physically encouraged.

[@missdcomplextv]

He just slapped me with his speech. I run a blog with a friend and we have difficulties finding people to work with us and even photographers we know don't respond when we contact them. We are learning our biggest lesson now : DO AND CREATE YOUR VISION BY YOURSELF ! Don't wait for people to help you create it, because they will never help you when you start from scratch. We won't give up Mr. Washington .

[@ThespianLife]

Miss DcomplexTV Yes people want to stand next to you when then lights are on and the camera is rolling. they are not there when you are at the bottom of the grind. #GETTHATVISION

[@gloriapak8125]

There’s not too many Denzel Washington in this world. He’s a unique individual. And so very blessed..🎚

[@SWAAED]

❤ from a french girl who's inspired by you and this wonderful speech... thank you sir Washington 👍

[@cody7790]

I love Denzel Washington, he is like a father that always has the right answer. Hes so genuine. On the red carpet with his wife and in interviews by himself, he is so down to earth. 1 in a million.

[@thirumuniandy3017]

SEE YOU AT WORK...booyah!! that says it all. he didn't end the speech but rather started it. life only begins once we start doing what we preached

[@massiellargaespada8430]

The ease in which he structures his words is incredible.
