How Did Morgan Freeman Changed

“ If you lay down, people will step over you. But if you keep scrambling, if you keep going, someone will always, always give you a hand. Always. But you gotta keep dancing, you gotta keep your feet moving” (Brainyquote, n.d.). This quote was stated by Morgan Freeman, a respected individual in the entertainment business.

People, like interviewer Mike Wallace from the TV series “60 minutes”, to President Barack Obama, have commended him, saying things like, “He’s a thoughtful man,” and “I respect him immensely,” (Biography.com
