Denzel Washington Credits Children for Humility

Denzel Washington has a well-earned reputation for being down-to-earth, and in the June issue of Reader’s Digest he suggests that it is his family who keep him humble. “I am who I am — a regular guy with a great job,” he says. “How I’m analyzed belongs to someone else.”
“In a few minutes, I’ve got a kid’s game to go to, and then I’m taking our daughter to auditions. Today, that’s my job.”
His days of shuffling his four children to and fro are quickly coming to an end, however, for John David, 24, Katia, 21, and 18-year-old twins Olivia and Malcolm are growing up before his very eyes! ”Right now I’m learning that they’re adults,” Denzel says, adding,
“I’m a talker; now I’m learning to shut up. It’s an interesting transition for me — and even more so for my wife, who for 25 years put everything into them.”
John, Katia, Olivia and Malcolm are Denzel’s children with wife Pauletta.
