Quotes From Drake:
"I'm the only person in my family who
didn't have to get braces. I'm also the only one who didn't get a
bicycle or baptized. The three B's."—Soap Opera
Digest, 11/4/86
"Each one was different. One was a spring shower
in a forest, one was a walk along the beach and another was a full moon
through a leafless tree." —On his leading ladies,
Digest, 4/12/94
"I've been on the show for 10 years, and I guess
what I keep thinking is that the 'leading man' tag is slowly being
peeled off."—Digest, 2/13/96
