Best Answer

Quick is an adjective. Quickly is an adverb. So you have to ask yourself what is quick? A verb or a noun? If the noun is quick, use quick. If a verb is being done quickly, then use quickly.

For example: The quick dog ran. The dog is being described as quick. (dog=noun)

or The dog ran quickly. The running is being done quickly. (run=verb)
