    • 1973, Liwayway:
      Sabihin nang sigurista, pero ito talaga ang karaniwang ugali ng movie producers. Ngayon, bihira na sa kanila ang tumitingin sa ganda o kapogihan lamang. Sa panahong ito, unang-una nang dapat maging puhunan ang talent.
      Let's say they are too cautious, but this is really the usual custom of movie producers. Now, they seldom look on beauty or handsomeness alone. At this time, they must invest in talent.
