Surfing is like golf: You're always battling, and it keeps knocking you down. There are a lot of wipeouts. But when you stay with it and catch that wave, you really taste it. It's magic.

More quotes by Dennis Quaid
My real-life athletic career was not very much. I played Little League baseball.
Dennis Quaid
I was a guy back in the Eighties who was one movie away from a huge career, which at that time didn't happen. In the Nineties, I worked a lot, but it was kind of, 'Get out there and dig and find things.' Then I guess 'The Rookie' and 'Far From Heaven' were referred to as my comeback.

Going to the golf course every day for work? That's a good job.
Dennis Quaid
You go to Main Street, and Wal-Mart is coming to town and kicking out all the mom and pop stores. All the people that were in the mom and pop stores are now working for Wal-Mart.

I want to work with great people. Great people really make you better.

It's as predictable as the sun rising in the morning. Every time Barack Obama's poll numbers rise you can be certain he's done something else to weaken the country. He's empowered a base that loathes American excellence.

God is the only way you're going to make it in life, the glue that holds everything together.

I found golf late in life, in 1990. I took some lessons and struggled. Then one day, I hit a drive that was so crisp and clean, with no vibration. There's no feeling like it. I was hooked.

I try to be eclectic in my choice of films. If I've done anything that's intentional in my career, it's to try to do as many different types of characters and as many different types of genres of movies that I can.
Dennis Quaid
I was very uncomfortable with all the attention when it first started happening to me. I retreated quite a bit from the world, both physically and emotionally. But then you just accept that you can't control what the rest of the world thinks or does.
Dennis Quaid
What, like I want to look like Dick Clark? No. I think I look great with liver spots.
Dennis Quaid
I found that you don't have to do drugs to have a great time. Music is a great drug on its own.
Dennis Quaid
Certainly I'm a Christian first and foremost. But I do believe in religious tolerance and finding the commonality between all of us. I think that's how we're all going to come together.
Dennis Quaid
Playing Bill Clinton is really, probably, the scariest time of my career.
Dennis Quaid
I was a really avid bowler when I was a teenager. I had about a 210-220 average. I had blisters on my fingers.
Dennis Quaid
I'm an idol of cinema? Oh, wow.
Dennis Quaid
I have always done my own stunts, and I have been in hundreds of fights in films, but I have never been in a fist fight outside the movies.
Dennis Quaid
That's what is great about what I do, going from one job to the other.
Dennis Quaid
I would like my kids to follow their bliss.

The truth [always] lies in things that have no words.
