Quote by Richard Dreyfuss
If I wasnt an actor, Id be a teacher, a history teacher. After all

If I wasnt an actor, Id be a teacher, a history teacher. After all, teaching is very much like performing. A teacher is an actor, in a way. It takes a great deal to get, and hold, a class. – Richard Dreyfuss
