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?

Bryan Cranston
You get addicted to emotions. Our endorphins kick in and it's like a high. On the low end you might love roller coasters. On the high end you might be a bank robber or something.
Bryan Cranston
Hollywood has known this for quite a while: Cable is the place to go because they truly have a supportive network and they want to do things that cannot be seen on broadcast. That stimulates the writer-producer. Cable is king.
Bryan Cranston
Actors basically are the type of person that with three seconds left, we want the ball. Give us the shot to make it or miss it. We'll take the lumps if we miss it, but we want the chance to get the glory.
Bryan Cranston
Every time you start a project, you're hopeful that the critics receive it warmly.
Bryan Cranston
Money has never been my primary goal.
Bryan Cranston
It's a familiar story now: a meek and depressed high school chemistry teacher with terminal cancer cooks up a scheme to make and market a superior grade of methamphetamine to provide a nest egg for his family after he's gone. But over the course of five seasons Walter White goes from milquetoast to murderous in order to survive.
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
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
I think if you believe in past lives, I must have been an extremely deprived being. I must have been mistreated, beaten, and forced into indentured servitude because this life has just been phenomenal.
Bryan Cranston
It's up to the actor to make sure they don't get typecast.
Bryan Cranston
Let me demonstrate. When you greet a friend this is the duration of the kiss that's acceptable. Hi, good to see you - yeah. When you make a mistake and stay too long at the lips, this is how long it is. Hi, how are you? Good to see you. And that's what happened. It was like, Uh-oh, what was that? Oh.
