What he has said is a proven truth of the world, if you start low it doesn't matter you CAN make it through hard work and perseverance. The issue today is we aren't teaching kids to get back up when they fall down, we focus not on how to get back up and learn from it, but instead how to shift the blame to someone or something else. This has created a world where if you perceive yourself to be disadvantaged you believe you are entitled to a free pass and the sad truth is for many they are given it, never growing up, never learning, still believing themselves disadvantaged because they never truly overcame their struggles.

Probably the best clip I’ve ever seen from CNN. I’ve always been a big fan of Morgan Freeman.

When I was 16, I was at a cafe in a small village where my father was from where a few old people were sitting, drinking and saying the same thing every day. "If I did this and did that, I would have been rich and better off." To which I asked "What stopped you?" He had no real answer he just looked at me wondering why. That was when I decided to leave and promise myself not to be 65 at a coffee shop say "If I did this and if I did that." 24 years later, outside of making good money, I did it. I went to the army. I left and lived in 3 different countries. I put myself through university and passed with honors. I wrote that novel I always promised. I saw parts of the world via travelling, I have made my own business, I have loved. I may not be rich or own something of my own (Yet) But I have lived a life I am proud of and when I die, my "What if's?" will be little, cause I know what happened. Follow your heart people. Don't let poverty, or race keep you down. You may not become rich (I am not and may never be) and you may not be super happy. But you will find piece of mind before its too late.

"Hard times create strong men, Strong men create good times, Good times create weak men, Weak men create hard times." This doesn't mean things are fair or that something works 100% of the time. It means, in general, that hard times create people who are tougher and more inventive who achieve things improving the situation of themselves and usually ESPECIALLY their children...creating good times. Good times then create entitled and spoiled people who are far more fragile and tend to under achieve...squandering their advantages and leading to hard times again. It's not that there are no problems in the world, it's that people adjust to their environment and when comfortable people are loathe to admit most of the problems they have as a person until it's too late...and often not even then.

@@peacheskong2245 Well it's relevant. We live in lilterally the best time ever to be alive as a human. Lowest crime rates, highest standards of living, highest equality rates, etc. But people have this weird idea that "their generations" have it the worse than previous generations. As a 35 year old millennial who grew up just before technology took over I can tell you that shit is way WAY easier today than it was when I grew up. I didn't have a cell phone, GPS, internet was barely a thing with my 28.8k modem, TV was whatever happened to be on, video games were something where a few good titles came out a year, etc. We have so much convenience and choice today we didn't used to have we just take for as "the expected baseline". I'm only 35 lol. LGBTQ folks were regularly beat to death when I was growing up. Now we're worrying about little things like pronouns lol. That's a shit ton of progress.

People are just not patient anymore, its all, I want change now, well sorry it takes time and the process only takes longer when you demand quick fixes, go to your local play ground and you can see the next generation already fixing the problem, by simply playing and learning together, where as the older generation did not have this, to the extent kids do these days.

I just see a lot of young people with their faces glued to their smartphones. LOL, maybe I too should switch off this electronic distraction and go and have a conversation with someone face to face!

I love you Morgan. Greetings from Denmark

I'm impressed with both sides of this interview. A rare thing.

Sad that he supports clinton.

They aren't the only two options. Gary Johnson is polling at 20-30% in multiple polls. A third party isn't an impossibility.

both candidates are shit.... but to choose from two evils with no choice available i'd go for the lesser evil.... ok ok maybe both are equal evils but it's really down to scandalous liar and literal stupidity .... and in politics there is NO ONE that is not scandalous or a liar... its PART of politics... but stupidity is NOT and shouldnt be a part of politics what so fucking ever...

What in the actual hell are you talking about

One complete a-hole and one hard working amazing gentleman. One man looking for excuses and blame and one man willing to tell the truth. You're a hero Mr. Freeman.

Iconic man an best voice ever in show biz mr freeman thanks for the years of your voice an hope we have very many more years of your voice keep it going. I could listen to mr. freeman every minute of the day.

Thank God we still have men like this in our country

Love this interview. They both said the truth about how they feel

I've always liked Morgan Freeman. He talks a lot of sense. That aside, the quality of his voice is amazing. I could listen to him speak all day. Think it might be time to pull out Shawshank again.

Such a brilliant man.
