Anthony Hopkins quotes about
When I became an actor my dream was ... to come here to Hollywood. You know Hollywood is a state of mind ... it's synonymous with a dream factory.
I have no interest in Shakespeare and all that British nonsense... I just wanted to get famous and all the rest is hogwash.
