Dennis Quaid Time Quotations

One thing I've really never had a problem with was memorizing lines. Most of the time I don't memorize the lines until we're on the set shooting the scene.

When I get a script, it's the only time that I get to be an audience member with the first-time experience of that movie. That's the first and only time.

When I watch a movie that I've been in, I'm watching it, but I usually remember what I was doing at that time, what was going on in my life.

I've been down to a 1 twice, and every time I get down there I start playing badly. I'm playing like a 13 right now. I have no idea why. It's all between the ears.

I judge movies on how much fun I had while I was doing them. I had a great time on 'The Right Stuff.' Doing that was fantastic. And there was the year I did 'The Rookie' and 'Far From Heaven,' which was amazing because those two different roles were just so far apart.
