I love cable, but not because you can show boobies and say the F-word. I love it because you have more time to think. That's the blessing of it.
Vince GilliganI'm not a big internet guy - not because I'm not interested in what people have to say, but probably because I'm too interested.
Vince GilliganIf religion is a reaction of man, and nothing more, it seems to me that it represents a human desire for wrongdoers to be punished. I hate the idea of Idi Amin living in Saudi Arabia for the last 25 years of his life. That galls me to no end. I feel some sort of need for biblical atonement, or justice, or something. I like to believe there is some comeuppance, that karma kicks in at some point, even if it takes years or decades to happen. My girlfriend says this great thing thatโs become my philosophy as well. 'I want to believe there's a heaven. But I can't not believe there's a hell.'
Vince GilliganHaving certain limits - not too many, but certain limits on an ability to tell a story - makes us work harder, me and my writers. Sometimes I watch a giant movie with a $250 million budget and I think they feel kind of bloated, and that if they'd been leaner and meaner they might've had better storytelling.
