Dennis Hopper Quotes:
  • "You want to hear about insanity? I was found running naked through the jungles in Mexico. At the Mexico City airport, I decided I was in the middle of a movie and walked out on the wing on takeoff. My body... my liver... okay, my brain... went."
  • On Marlon Brando: "He's simply the best, and if he wants to call acting merely a craft, then he's the greatest craftsman who ever lived."
