Grateful kasi nandito lahat. Nagsama-sama, nagtulong-tulong. Hindi ko ma-imagine na pupunta dito ang TV5, ALLTV2, at A2Z. Kasi ang ibig sabihin nito, isinisigaw natin sa buong Pilipinas na dapat magtulong-tulong tayo at magsuportahan para dito sa Sigabo. – Coco Martin, in a special premiere screening for Sigabo
Ito na ‘yung produkto na mapapanood ng mga tao at para siyang pelikula. Lagi naman sinasabi ng ABS-CBN na ‘in the service of the Filipino.’ Ang pinakaimportante ay nagsama-sama ang lahat. – Julia Montes, Sigabo cast member
