When the sun is shining, make hay, because it would be sunset on my career at some point, and when it is, I want to be exhausted.
Bryan Cranston
I enjoy storytelling. I like to write it, I like to direct it, I like to act in it, I like to produce it. I like to be around storytellers. That's what excites me.
Bryan Cranston
In fact, I told our dear friends, the Burrell boys, five boys lived next door to us. Why, we don't see your dad anymore? Oh, yeah. Yeah. He - I lied. I said, He comes home at night when you guys are in bed. He gets us up and we play. I said it so much that I started to believe it myself, you know?

If you like vanilla, you're not going to like 'Breaking Bad' - you need to like a specific flavor that is unusual, that is different, that takes risks.
Bryan Cranston
[My father] had a massive middle-age breakdown. And left the family. And then it just completely fell apart. And my mother was heartbroken, just completely devastated. To make ends meet we started selling off all our possessions.

Good storytelling doesn't have to be in the form of the classics. It doesn't have to be revered by everybody. In fact, to me, the best storytelling is not universally loved by every single person. I think you can water down the ethicacy of the work, itself.
Bryan Cranston
Every experience feeds an actor, and I've learned that depression is all around us.
Bryan Cranston
I don't wanna have anything left in the tank.
Bryan Cranston
Something's happened in our society which I don't think is beneficial, and that's that you see the public being fed box-office news. Newscasts now, every local station - I've been traveling around the country a lot, and you see the local news, and they give box-office reports.
Bryan Cranston
Being from a divorced family almost felt like a scarlet letter at times. And I denied it for a long time.
Bryan Cranston
I learned long ago to focus on things you can control and don't even pay attention to things you don't.
Bryan Cranston
I don't think life owes me anything and the business doesn't owe me anything. The only way to approach it is by working hard and loving what you do. If you do that and have faith, maybe you will get lucky. I mean that sincerely and specifically. I truly believe that no professional career in the arts is capable without a healthy dose of luck.
Bryan Cranston
I love acting because it's empowering. It empowers me.
Bryan Cranston
My passion is becoming involved in good work, whether that means as an actor or writer or director or producer or all - that is not as important to me.
Bryan Cranston
With craziness, you can't predict it. There's very little defense you can have on craziness.
Bryan Cranston
Every time you start a project, you're hopeful that the critics receive it warmly.
Bryan Cranston
Love between two adults is always conditional. You can fall out of love because you are able to fall in love.
