Self
- Bruce Brown: When we checked on the tickets to South Africa, to get LA - Capetown - back to LA - was $50 more than going around the world via Capetown.
- R. Paul Allen: Fortunately, for this travel agent suggesting that to Bruce, and coming up with a better price even, that is what made truly, the remarkable movie, "The Endless Summer".
- Bruce Brown: So, that's how it happened - to save the 50 bucks. And then, sort of the summer thing came - came to my little pea brain, like, "Gosh, you know, it's summer in the Southern Hemisphere and it's winter here and, well, if you just went around in a circle long enough you could stay right in the middle of summer for the rest of your life." So, that turned out to be the, you know, the theme of the film.
- Bruce Brown: I envisioned what happened happening. But, had it not happened, I wouldn't have been surprised either.
