"There are several things sacred in this world that you don't ever mess with. One of them happens to be another man's fries. Now you remember that, and you will live a long and healthy life."

Keith David (born June 4, 1956) is an American screen actor and voice actor. He has appeared in several high-profile motion pictures such as Michael Bay's Armageddon, and in many cult classics such as John Carpenter's They Live and The Thing, but is perhaps best known for his role as Imam in Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick.

On the voice acting side, he is recognized for such roles as Goliath in Disney's Gargoyles, the title character from HBO's Spawn, the Arbiter in the Halo game series, David Anderson in the Mass Effect game series, Dr. Facilier in Disney's The Princess and the Frog, Chaos in Dissidia Final Fantasy and its sequel, as well as narrating commercials for the US Navy. Recently, David has lent his voice to Activision Blizzard's video game juggernaut Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 alongside Lance Henriksen and Glenn Morshower, as well as Electronic Arts' Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2, the former also with Henriksen.

He is, perhaps, the coolest man alive today.
