You need to tell the truth to the audience, or they will throw a brick through the TV. They'll turn you off.

I learned long ago to focus on things you can control and don't even pay attention to things you don't.

It doesn't matter if you're good. If you're just good, you won't succeed. If you have patience and persistence and talent and that's it, you will not have a successful career as an actor. The elusive thing you need is luck.

I enjoy doing comedy for the fact that you go to work and you laugh. That's a good combination.

I love acting because it's empowering. It empowers me.

Actors are inherently self-centered. We're trained to focus on who I am. What do I want? Who is in my way? How do I get this? That's how we're trained. Unfortunately, that sometimes spills over into real life. But it's all very subjective. You just try to portray someone beyond the surface, the different layers.

I was just infused with ideas and I would dream about it and wake up and go, "Oh, I have another idea about Walter White." It was so well written. And it just got into my soul.
