Denny's Quotes:
Here I am in my 70’s and I still feel that everything I wanted to express in life is still bottled up in me, like a kidney stone.
And then I think to myself, suicide is so unoriginal. But now if I were to shoot my doctor…
I’m not going to shoot you, don’t be ridiculous.
I thought he was a quail. It was total self-defense.
I laughed when the vice president mistook his friend for a bird.
Canada, Japan, any number of those Pinko countries, I’d be in jail right now.
The solution isn’t less guns; it is more.
Do you think it is a sign of Alzheimer’s if you can’t remember how many people you’ve shot?
