When you are good, money comes. When you are good, they pay for your services. Some actors live and die poor because they are not good enough.

More quotes by Justus Esiri

One has to be very careful in this society when people choose to fly before walking.

I believe some actors are born but they must work hard to be made.

A good actor must be talented and know the rudiments on the profession. That means you have to go to school. Education is very important in this business.

All I said that a good actor should know what his people want. And because I know, therefore I am good. Again, you cannot be a good actor if you are not well- trained or groomed in the profession.
