It must be remembered that the Bush White House has a separate talent for character assassination that must not be confused with a talent for governance. Richard Dreyfuss
I decided at age 9, but I was reinforced at age 13 when a teacher told me I had talent. I can't say she really motivated me because I already knew. I knew I had talent. I went to the Jewish community theater and got in plays there. Then I went for the movies.' Richard Dreyfuss
