The Sekrets record is very much me, and Dan’s Emergency Room is very much him. And then Alkaline Trio is very much ours.
Dan Rather pulling on a sweater and thereby winning a whole new chunk of the populace: That’s television. President Reagan’s press conferences: That’s television. Keith Jackson is television. So are Kermit the Frog, instant replay, and the Fiesta Bowl.
I’ve three older brothers, Dan, Russ and Darren, and a younger brother, Joe. It was a lot of fun.
When I was maybe three years old, I was obsessed with this song ‘Leader of the Band’ by Dan Fogelberg. My mom took me to the mall and bought me a 45 of it. We would listen to that song all the time.
That’s the really neat thing about Dan Quayle, as you must have realized from the first moment you looked into those lovely blue eyes: impeachment insurance.
My theory as to why I first became a comedian is that my mother was always keenest on my younger brother, Dan. It doesn’t bother me now, but it did then and the way I compensated for that was to publicise myself as myself – to tell people who I was in 100 per cent detail, going into every crevice of my life.
You know, differentiating between training and matches. If they are all matches it becomes very natural to shoot them, although Dan thinks I should shoot more of them. I think I shoot plenty of them.
Big respect to Dan Henderson.
When I moved out of London 13 years ago, I found a whole other reason not to drive. This was because my new husband Dan, unlike my dad, did drive, and this became a great source of fun and adventure.
Coaching was always intriguing to me as a kid. Watching ‘Monday Night Football’ with my dad and hearing him talk through the game management and watching the Tom Landrys and Don Shulas on the sideline was more intriguing to me than watching Troy Aikman or Dan Marino throw the ball.
CBS news anchor Dan Rather has interviewed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. When asked what it was like to talk to a crazy man, Saddam said, ‘It’s not so bad.’
Baltimore breeds a really specific type of weirdo. Animal Collective is from Baltimore. Dan Deacon, John Waters. There’s a through line of weirdness and a hard edge that I see when I meet people from that area.
We’ve always been fans of groups like Little Feat, Steely Dan, the Eagles, or Dire Straits that have that quality. Bands that sometimes are perceived as not the ‘cool’ band, because they’re so good in a technical sense.
I didn’t read a lot of comic books. But I was into ‘Dandy and The Beano,’ which were like a weekly pulp fiction that featured characters like Desperate Dan, Dennis the Menace, and Billy Whizz – pretty simplistic stuff but very entertaining.
The American people would not want to know of any misquotes that Dan Quayle may or may not make.
I’d love to work with Steve Martin. I’d love to work with Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd.
I know how to do the other stuff – the ‘Access’ stuff and go be goofy and all that. That I can do. For me to sit on a desk, when I know on the other network is Bob Costas and Dan Patrick is a change.
Andy Parsons was always very funny. He was in a double act with a guy called Henry Naylor. Dan Mazer was always a very funny guy.
I’m Dan Gelber. As a federal prosecutor, I helped put away corporate criminals, corrupt politicians and violent gangs.
At ‘SNL’ there’s framed pictures of all the cast members, and it starts with Dan Aykroyd. It’s linear. It just keeps going through all these people, and then you’re at the end of it.
I’ve never thought of myself as a classic leading man. I’m a character actor who happens to play leading roles. Come on, look at me. I’m really Desperate Dan.
Technically, my first paying job was I was an extra in my dad’s movie ‘Dan in Real Life.’
In the end, Dan Rather’s legend skewered him, CBS and the craft of journalism.
As lifelong fans of comic books, Dan Didio and myself, we definitely have our own takes on what make for successful comics and the kind of comics that we want to publish.
There was a time in my life when people called me ‘Denim Dan.’ I didn’t like it. And fortunately for my self-esteem, it didn’t stick for very long. I was 12, and I was given the name by my classmates after I showed up to the first day of school in – wait for it – triple denim.
My dad used to love Steely Dan, the Stones, Jethro Tull and all that. There was always Steely Dan going in my dad’s car, but I remember The Royal Scam in particular because it has ‘Kid Charlemagne’ on it.
Dan Henderson has been a fighter for a long time, and he’s been a champion in many different organizations.
I have to say, working with Dan Stevens in ‘The Guest’ and seeing his transformation was incredible. Also Kate Winslet. Off set, she’s loud and sweary, but when she walks on set, she has this calmness and is so centred.
I think Dan Brown is a terribly bad writer, but he has cliff-hangers after every chapter which makes you continue reading.
Amy Sherman-Palladino and Dan Palladino gave me such a gift with ‘Bunheads,’ and to give me this gift of going on ‘Gilmore Girls’ was beyond. It was awesome.
My brother was a Chargers fan, so we watched Dan Fouts a lot growing up.
People tell me I look mournful. They say, ‘Cheer up, Dan, it’s not that bad!’ Sometimes I just look into space, which freaks people out. If I was ever required to do anything other than look haunted, I could. I’m a happy person.
To me, Dan Evans is an example of somebody that puts the clock back a little bit and tells everybody: ‘Listen, tennis is not a freak sport where you need to have rich parents, who sit in your players’ box for every single week of the whole year, and you need to talk to your coaches’ box between every shot.’
I had a Dan Fouts Nike poster with ‘The Bomb Squad’ on my wall as a kid. I was also a huge Larry Bird fan. One of my proudest art achievements is a papier-mache eagle decked out head-to-toe in Celtics gear.
Currently, I’m working with a company called DRL Promotions with my partners Dan Wise and Luis De Cubas. We’re currently representing over 30 fighters.
Whenever I write for television, I plan the story on whiteboard wallpaper in my office, using a system created by the American writer Dan Harmon. It’s remarkably simple: a character wants something; they enter a new world and adapt to it; they get what they want, re-enter the old world and change.
Before I was rapping, I was always around the rap game, even though I was in the streets. I would be at all the parties and all the events, and I was pretty hard to miss. I was one of the few Spanish cats sitting there with jewelry on, Dapper Dan suits. It was pretty hard to miss me.
My big break down here was working with Steven Spielberg in ‘1941.’ It was a very small role, as Corporal Foley, who was part of the tank crew with Dan Aykroyd.
I think I could describe the perfect quarterback. Take a little piece of everybody. Take John Elway’s arm, Dan Marino’s release, maybe Troy Aikman’s drop-back, Brett Favre’s scrambling ability, Joe Montana’s two-minute poise and, naturally, my speed.
‘The X-Files’ from the beginning was a very visual show, and with Bob Mandel directing the pilot and Dan Sackheim being involved in the production of the pilot and directing the first episode, they brought a visual style to it that was elaborated on by so many good directors.
Dan Curry is the funniest guy in the world. I can sit in a room with him for hours, and he’s just cracking me up constantly. And Kitao is the next Terry Gilliam. A lot of comedy directors are just comedic writers, but they don’t have any sense of aesthetic or visual vocabulary.
I got my black belt First Dan at the age of 12 and I was the youngest in my training centre. I practised karate till a few years ago and it has helped enhance my flexibility, stamina and mental toughness.
The next great decathlete is going to be a runner. I still feel that a Dan O’Brien, if he was a runner and not a sprinter, could have gone over 9,000 points.
I love Radiohead, which most people don’t expect, and I listen to everything from Stevie Wonder to Steely Dan, Carole King, The Beach Boys, The Kinks, Beyonce Knowles, Vampire Weekend, The Beatles, Joni Mitchell, Burt Bacharach, and Paul Simon.
The passing of my friend and a great American hero, Dan Inouye, is a major loss for the country and Hawaii. But the people of Hawaii are strong and we will persevere.
My yoga teacher is a guy from Michigan. ‘Yoga Dan’ – that’s what he calls himself – he’s been a big help for me.
One of the nicest things about NBC is that Tom Brokaw is not Dan Rather.
The idea that I have to be on the same side of the fence as Dan Quayle is cruelly depressing to me, but the truth is, I believe in family values.
Jorgensen is tough, but Lin Dan is right up there. He is the best and biggest rival. I really want to catch all his records, but if I want to achieve that, then the most important thing for me is to stay healthy.
Dan Curtis, our producer, has the idea that people like to see a stock company of actors.
Here we have a situation where a defendant in a case agrees to an interview with Dan Rather. It happened to be not confidential. But it was an interview with Dan Rather.
I’m ATT to the bone. I have my close circle of people, my clique – Jorge Masvidal, Mike Brown, Dan Lambert. I’m not friends with everybody. It’s a gym, but this is a one-man sport.
