Where's the citation? When did he say this? To whom did he say this?

Anyone can post a photo of some guy and add an alleged quote. Why should I believe that Richard Dreyfuss actually said this? There's no link to a speech or an interview - there's NOTHING. Just a picture with some words appended.

This crap drives me nuts. If somebody said something quotable, then give me the damn SOURCE. Not some doctored image that proves absolutely nothing.

People are too damn easily manipulated!
