ADD QUOTES
- David: (referring to his role as Braca on "Farscape") We did a flashback to when I was a lowly Lt. and discovered that my old outfit had shrunk terribly. People laughed at me. I looked like a sausage. They had to redo the belt. Three weeks more and I'll be hunky again.

- David: ( when asked what it was like working with Rebecca Riggs) We have a blast. As I'm sure you're aware, her outfit just covers her nipples, as all good Commandant's outfits do. One day she said, 'Are they even?' and I thought she said 'Are they evil?' so I said, 'Yes, yes, they're malevolent!'

- David: (when asked about his favorite "Farscape" moment) A moment I enjoyed was earlier on in the series, stepping over someone I just squashed into a airlocked door but being polite enough to say 'excuse me' to them as I walked over them.
