William Shatner: Denny Crane

Quotes 

• Alan Shore : I can't deny this one scared me, Denny. As illegal as her actions were, I would have been devastated had she gone to jail.

  Denny Crane : And yet, as justified as you say she was, you're telling me you're still against the death penalty?

  Alan Shore : Absolutely.

  Denny Crane : Doesn't make any sense.

  Alan Shore : Makes perfect sense.

  Denny Crane : It's okay for her to execute him, but if the government does it for her...

  Alan Shore : - That would be wrong.

  Denny Crane : Leave it to you liberals to come up with research that says it's okay to be for revenge, and against the death penalty.

  Alan Shore : It's a lot like being for the death penalty, and yet, pro-life.

  Denny Crane : You wanna go there? I can go there.

  Alan Shore : You started it.

  Denny Crane : I didn't start it. I'm just saying that you are a hypocrite.

  Alan Shore : [laughs]  No I'm not.

  Denny Crane : Yes, you are! You come up with these studies - and another thing about you Democrats, you all believe in science!

  Alan Shore : You should remember that little gem for your testimony.

  Denny Crane : I will. Don't you worry.

  [sighs] 

  Denny Crane : Would you defend me? Since I'm a witness, I'll need a lawyer to defend me, would you defend me?

  Alan Shore : I'll defend you Denny.

  Denny Crane : Thank you.

• Denny Crane : Well you're out there, trying these murder cases, and I'm in my office, twiddling my thumbs, being rejected by fatties. I am not over. I'm sick of people thinking I'm over.

  Alan Shore : I know you're not over. As far as I'm concerned, Denny, you've never been more now.
