Dennis Haysbert Quotes

  • (on the powers of visualizing your goals) I visualize the roles that I want. If I hadn’t visualized playing athletes, I wouldn’t have gotten Major League. If I hadn’t visualized playing a president, David Palmer never would have happened. You’ve got to have a sense of what you want to do; otherwise, the universe is just going to throw something at you.
  • (2006) I think I’d make a great superhero. I’m serious. I want to play a superhero and I’ve already got one in mind. I think I’ve still got the body for the costume and it’s something I really want to do.
  • (on high school) I played a little basketball, but basketball interfered with theater season. That’s when we did our term plays and did nutshell versions of Shakespeare for English classes. And, believe me, I got a fair amount of looks from the guys on the team. “You’re in theater but you can play football?!” I got a lot of shit about it.
  • From the time I was 10, I think I knew that I wanted to act, and then there was the caption under my high school picture, [so] it was obvious I had no doubts, I knew what I wanted to do. But I also had a catalyst, an older brother who died of cancer, and I just happened to be with him the [day] before he died. He asked me a simple question “What do you want to do?” And I said “Well, I want to be an actor.” He asked “Where do you want to do it? Can you do it from here?”, and when I said “No, not really”, he said “Well, get the hell out of here then because tomorrow’s not promised.” I’ll always remember those words: “Tomorrow’s not promised.”.
  • (on playing Nelson Mandela in The Color of Freedom (2007)) I just remember it being a very daunting situation. I was a little nervous about it and almost turned it down. I had a momentary loss of confidence and didn’t think I was worthy. He’s such a hero of mine.
