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

There is no more emphasis on knowledge and time. As a society we need to process ideas and understand what certain principles are based upon. – Richard Dreyfuss

The press and politicians. A delicate relationship. Too close, and danger ensues. Too far apart and democracy itself cannot function without the essential exchange of information. Creative leaks, a discreet lunch, interchange in the Lobby, the art of the unattributable telephone call, late at night. – Howard Brenton
