Recently, Samuel L. Jackson opened up about his long marriage and how he and his wife resolved any issues that might arise.

Jackson said, “It takes a lot of tolerance, because everybody’s got flaws, and not giving up when it would be easy to give up.”

He continued, “I’ve done s— in my marriage that’s crazy, you know? She has too, in her head or whatever in reality, but you got to go, ‘Is that a breakup offense?’ Or is it just that we need to spend a little time together and get some understanding about it?”

He added, “There are certain things that you learn to ignore about people — that she’s learned to ignore about me. And one of the things she had to accept is that I’m going to go to work. I’m going to go to work all the time until, you know, it’s time.”
