Book Quote by Bruce Dern

“I'm not a good reader. I had to take remedial reading in school. I was a slow reader and therefore it's tough for me to stay interested in things long enough, I've read, probably, since college maybe 10 books, which is disgusting.” quote by Bruce Dern — Download Open image
