"As I grow older, I put all life's bullshit aside. I think the process of the laying off of the bullshit starts around 40. Before that, most men have their heads stuck in their ass. After 40, you see things differently. You've found yourself. You're accepting yourself and what you got from life."
- Dennis Quaid, to the U.K.'s Guardian

first

2snd
good for you, DQ!
meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I've heard that many times from other people but I think that's a personal experience that you have to through on your own to really feel it. HAPPY B-B-Q day!!!
first!!!
Amen! Finally someone in Hollywood — or most anywhere, for that matter — figured it out. Enjoy your kids, your life, Let others love and be responsible for theirs. Life could be so simply and lovely if we'd let it.
Thanks for the wisdom grandpa. Hope you are around when the kids grow up you selfish OLD douchebag!
"most men have their heads stuck in their ass"…………….I AGREE THEY HAVE THEIR PRIORITIES MIXED UP……I HATE MEN
love that you finally made it so we could register and make names!!
also, quaid has wise words. i think it's true as a female, haha
Yep, that's it.
Women "get it" when they give birth and men "get it" when they hit their 40's.
Seen it over and over again.
More like 35….
I love the guy!!
As a woman, I figured that already out by the time I was 30, men are usually very slow. Now that I am 36 I still cannot find any decent men. Where are the 40-yr-old single men?
I feel bad that it took him as long as it did to realize that, and I'm a 22 year-old guy.
Dennis Quaid Rocks! Thank goodness he got rid of that psycho Meg Ryan.
Well say, dennis!
Too bad it takes women until 60 to get their own heads out of their asses.
Re: Scott –
Obviously, you are gifted.
You found that you are one of the most boring people in Hollywood without the personality or brains to refrain from prescripted dialogue and BE REAL.He talked about his kid learning to drive,his twins, his movie word for word exactly the same no matter who was interviewing him. Exact.I mean exact and that's hard to do. Look up these dhows and watch them you'll crack up after two appearances you could finish his sentences and his boring stories.Regis,Today Show,Good Morning America,Conan,Letterman, Rachael Ray, Yes I know these are promotional tours for exposure but I NEVER heard someone say the SAME thing to DIFFERENT hosts no matter the tone or tide of the interview.Please look up several of thses interviews he did on these shows within 10 days and you'd wish he was given the wrong dosage at a hospital but then again wed find him on the talk show circuit once again with scripted commentary. What a joke.
I love this man!
OH, so he's come to terms with the fact that
all his movies suck.
first
While I'm glad his babies are doing well, more mumbo jumbo from a former serial skirt chaser. Do we need his philosophy to fill up your holiday column, Perez?
LOL! That's funny Dennis. =]
You're officially a G.

Re: VOTE FOR HILLARY, TERRORIST WIN – Uhm, more like 32nd!! =] Dumb ass.
Such wisdom!
He's on his third marriage, to a beautiful blond 18 years his junior, and spends his days playing golf and flying his light plane.
I figured this out when I was 23. But the bullshit is still all over the place and you have to learn how to deal with it. Perez is full of shit for example. I love it when some women on here commented that they "figured it out" but I assure you, they are also full of shit and most likely haven't a clue about what Mr. Quiad is referring to. Go watch the movie Network and watch Finch's rant about running out of bullshit and you'll no what I'm talking about.
Well said! Robert Downey Jr. and Johnny Depp said something similar in an interview recently.
He's past his active years, he scored a beautiful young wife, and he does his hobbies every day.
Wow. He's really got it figured out.
oh my dear dear celebs .
all the best to you !
:) looking great .
Love him!Nice to see a celebrity with their values in check!
I think when he said "laying off the bullshit", he means keeping his dick in his pants. Maybe when you are over 40 you realize what's really important, and you take you're head out of your ass. Cuz you know young guys definitely have their heads up their ass when they are younger.
Those babies don't look very secure! The lil bundles could just slip right out, it's too big of a stroller for them! Be careful!

I AGREE!
what a loser!!!! wasted 40years of his life and this is all he can say?? yah cocks are stupid esp when they are beating off to video game characters while living in mom's basement acting like the world owes them something…there are enough 40+ year old men that are still teenager mentality…shockin i know!
he looks disgusting, hope he gets cancer and dies lol leather face hag
no media spinning can ever make this man interesting
let them try haaaaaaaa!
It's good to see his babies doing well and his family so happy. There's just something eternally adorable about Dennis Quaid. I love him!
Must be tough..
Got rid of fish lips, his older son, upgraded the chick, made sure she didn't get a stretch mark…and BAM…he is happy
Oh..forgot about kicking the coke habit his first wife made him do before she would marry him….oh isn't life tough.
blah blah blah
DQ hasn't learned a damn thing. He cheated on Meg until she had enough of it & finally dumped his ass. He cheats on Kimberly too. He and a friend of mine did the nasty a year ago when he was in NYC. She wasn't aware that he'd remarried. So obviously he still has a problem keeping his dick in his pants.
They look like a happy couple, He has finally found a woman that puts him first.
I would assume it also helps if you are extremely overpaid for doing something that makes pretend it`s a job.
Re: Vito – Honey you could not be MORE on the mark! That tired ass bitch tried to come into our office for VAGINAL reconsruction! OK you old tired ass Anna Nicole wanna be bitch please! Best thing you can hopes for is a Lima landing strip. Girl ain't no body want that tired ass old meg ryan bull shilt she like a deflated jeep tire been all around with nothing but lots a air in it! She jus so wrong…. FUCK her tired ass with Jeremy Irons tiny ass dick!
Re: elle –
HAHAHA, looks like we're SOL!
He'll do anything for publicity! His wife is a NUT CASE, and quite ugly in person! They deserve each other, and believe me, she is no prize, just dead weight and hysterical!!! Feel sorry for those kids!
Really Dennis, exactly how many men have you dated?
Well put Dennis, you're right.
Though accepting the myriad of things you've got from life is probably a little easier for you than for others.
Enjoy your life and prosper!
you males must be some slow ass retards if it takes you that long to grok life!
wat 2 weird 2 hear that at 40 2 old now
"he scored a beautiful young wife"
At last year's Dennis Quaid Charity event I was talking to someone very close to Dennis and we were discussing his wife. Dennis and Kimberly were standing in the hotel lobby where we were. He commented that it was easy for Dennis to get younger women because he was a movie star. I replied to him, "yeah, but would you want THAT" and his answer was "Hell no"!! He knows Kim personally.
BTW, there is not going to be a Quaid charity event this year. I'm sure they will say it is because of his hectic schedule, the twins etc, but it all comes down to one thing and it's name is Kim.
Hi webmaster!
SOMEONE FORGOT TO TELL JOHN CUSACK!
Really, bogey? Why am I not surprised. She minimized his relationship with his son, who now lives fulltime with his mom, then she took away his plane and now his charity event? It's ALL about HER, no? Then again he cheats on her every few months so maybe this is her way of getting revenge.
I just love it when celebs tell lies for the sake of good PR….
You've nailed it Tinker.
Not sure how often he cheats on Kimberly or if he still does, but I do know for a fact that he has.
"It's ALL about HER, no?"
The first year at the charity event after they'd married, Kimberly threw a fit because Dennis went up to his room to go to bed. It was very late at night and it had been a very long day for him.. golfing, going to hospitals and meeting the children, doing radio shows etc. She was down in the hotel bar with some of her girlfriends crying and drinking. She was angry at Dennis because he wouldn't stay down there with her and party.
At last year's event, several of us heard her blast Dennis for about 30 minutes because she was having to share her space with the lowly volunteers at the Belmont. There was an after party being held there on the outside patio for the volunteers and staff.
Dennis always seems genuinely appreciative of all the volunteers for all their hard work and never once fails to thank them. Kimberly on the other hand appears to still have her "head up her ass". Maybe once she turns 40 she will realize that life isn't all about her, but I think not.
Dennis may be nice to those volunteers, but he sure was dumb enough to marry that woman. Why didn't he just stay single? It's like he has forgotten about his previous life, including his older son.
rumor around austin was kimberly was preggers and that's the reason dennis married her. they were engaged for about a month before they married. then she had a miscarriage. of course this never made the tabloids but her miscarriage history recently did.
I don't understand how a woman who has gone through the heartache so many miscarriages is able to accept her husband sleeping with other women, with and without her. Maybe now that she is a mom she will be less forgiving and accepting. I sure hope so.
"I don't understand how a woman who has gone through the heartache so many miscarriages is able to accept her husband sleeping with other women, with and without her. Maybe now that she is a mom she will be less forgiving and accepting. I sure hope so".
I'm the original "Bogey" & I see someone else is using my name. Whereas I didn't post this I do agree with the post. However, I think Kimberly loves the lifestyle that Dennis can provide her with, so she overlooks his cheating.
