I don't see how it's a risky thing to take a great part with a great director and a great script. That, to me, is not really a dangerous, risky proposition. It's actually a really good choice.
From Dennis Quaid
I still have my original love for acting. That's why I feel so lucky. I think that's what sustains me in the sort of leaner times.
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.
Wall Street has come to America's heartland, really. The only thing missing are the skyscrapers, you know?
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.
When I was in my mid-20s, I traveled a lot around the world, and the question I had for everyone I talked to was, 'What is your conception of God?' I found that everybody basically felt the same: God is within and without. He's in everything.
I spent a weekend in the White House with President Clinton, back in '99, I guess. We played golf and just hung out and talked on many subjects. I saw him several times subsequently in L.A. He's the smartest man I ever met, a great politician. Everybody was star struck around him.
I love politics, but I wouldn't want to be involved in it. Too little money, too much work!
I love doing independent films, but it's very hard to make a living that way.
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.
