"I was incredibly moved by Hillary's speech, and Obama – but I was really moved by Hillary's speech. And I thought that she gave just about the most profound and wise advice that I have ever heard. And I think even for me, it sort of summed up something that I have thought but maybe not been able to articulate for a long time – which is: In your life, you will have successes and you will have failures. And those failures will hurt so much. They'll really sting. But if you're doing what you think is right, then it's always worth it. It is always, always worth – the potential for failure is always – that risk – is always worth taking." Williams was promoting the indie drama "Manchester by the Sea," which stars Casey Affleck as a janitors in Massachusetts who returns to his home town after a family tragedy. Affleck said he'd talked to his two children about the presidential race throughout the year. He was against Trump as well. "I think we were all just as equally shocked by it. They woke up in the morning and I had to tell them that Donald Trump was going to be the president. They wanted to know what that meant, and I had to give it as positive a spin as I could. And say – you know, it doesn't mean that everyone in this country has those beliefs, but it's pretty great that we live in a democracy," the actor said. "You stand up for things that you believe in and make it known that you don't believe in those things. And don't accept it. And I wanted them to know that just because the guy who is now going to be the President of the United States said certain things, it does not mean that we believe those things in our house." "Manchester by the Sea" is due in U.S. theaters on Friday.
