More quotes by Dennis Quaid
'Legion' was a lot of fun to shoot. It was a real unique apocalypse scenario that takes place in a diner out in the desert. Very much like a drive-in B-movie, but in a good way.
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.

Going to the golf course every day for work? That's a good job.

Before I was an actor, I was never able to hold a job for more than 3 months for some reason. It just wouldn't hold my interest, so there was some way that I wound up quitting or getting fired from it. But being an actor is perfect, because movies usually take about three months to shoot. Then it's over and they say, 'Hey, great job!'

In aviation they have auto pilot and color radar and a lot of other instrumentation that is a backup for pilots. It's really brought the incidents of plane crashes way down. Same thing ought to happen in the medical industry, I think.

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
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
I guess I could say I'm an actor, which I am, but that sounds like I'm putting down being a movie star, which, let's face it, is what I've become to many people. For myself, I'm a guy who was very insecure from about age 14 until the day I hit my 30th birthday.
Dennis Quaid
I could never hold a job for more than three months, which works out well because that's how long a movie shoots.
Dennis Quaid
In my early teen years, I wanted to become a vet. That was my plan. I worked as a veterinarian's assistant for a couple of summers.

My real-life athletic career was not very much. I played Little League baseball.
Dennis Quaid
I can't hit a ball more than 200 yards. I have no butt. You need a butt if you're going to hit a golf ball.
Dennis Quaid
I am very interest in the human condition. That is what I love about acting. I like studying different people and their psychosis. I like discovering what makes them tick. I always find that with any character I play. I need to find out what makes them tick.
Dennis Quaid
Everybody just wants to be famous first, and then maybe learn how to act.
Dennis Quaid
For many years, I was obsessed about what I was eating, how many calories it had, and how much exercise I'd have to do.
Dennis Quaid
I've done so many movies that when I see them I don't really watch them.
Dennis Quaid
I directed a movie back in the '90s which had calf roping in it, and I got into it quite a bit back then.
Dennis Quaid
I owe the little formal education I got to my drama teacher, Mr. Pickett, who got us to read Shakespeare, Moliere, and other classics.
