Quote by Hugh Jackman
At the end of drama school, I made a contract with myself: Id try

At the end of drama school, I made a contract with myself: Id try acting for five years. I was 26. I had already spent eight years working in restaurants and gas stations. So I had seen enough small businesses to understand that thats what acting is: a small business. – Hugh Jackman
