“I do things on TV that are kitchen-sink realism, which is great, but I...” — David Denman Quote

“I do things on TV that are kitchen-sink realism, which is great, but I like the challenge of a completely new language and dramatic environment.”

“There's a lot of people in the community who are seeing a play for a first time, and that, to me, is really exciting.”

“I sat there in awe that some guy overseas, trying to protect our interests, was using a silly comedy as a survival tool. My brain had an explosion. I was really moved by that.”

“There was a time when people liked to take Shakespeare and twist him around to make whatever social or political statement they wanted to make.”

“Usually, you see this play as a guy who can't make up his mind, but our version is more of a revenge thriller than a man who is pontificating what he should do next. I've never seen a 'Hamlet' this big, this exciting, with this many cast members; it's quite a spectacle.”

“So often in sitcoms, it's like, 'Oh, that husband of mine. He just screwed up again.' They just have to tolerate each other. It's not the most fun to play from my perspective. But by the same token, you can't be like, 'We're just like Romeo and Juliet, always in love.'”

“I love an acting challenge, and I love getting to sit down with my script and do all my drama work.”

“I knew I needed to challenge myself mentally and physically - not just for me but for my family - so I climbed a mountain all by myself.”

“The Osage have this lovely phrase: 'Travelers in the Mist.' It was the term for part of an Osage clan that would take the lead whenever the tribe was venturing into unfamiliar realms. And, in a way, we are all travelers in the mist. The challenge is that, as writers, we sometimes want to ignore this murkiness, or we want to write around it.”

“If your work isn't exciting, doesn't stir the emotions, where's the challenge? Where's the progress if you always play it safe?”

“I'm working with elite players, and they test and challenge you.”

“I want to challenge you today to get out of your comfort zone. You have so much incredible potential on the inside. God has put gifts and talents in you that you probably don't know anything about.”
