The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Vince Gilligan
- For many decades—and this was reinforced by the broadcast networks’ standards-and-practices department—bad guys on TV had to get their comeuppance, and good guys had to be brave, true, and unconflicted. Those were the laws of the business.
- My brain—the older I get, it holds even less. There’s not the capacity I would wish there to be.
- You don’t make a movie by yourself, and you certainly don’t make a TV show by yourself. You invest people in their work. You make people feel comfortable in their jobs; you keep people talking.
- You can cheat in solitaire, but there’s nothing satisfying about cheating in solitaire.
- There’s nothing more powerful to a showrunner than a truly invested writer.
- A big part of the job of being a showrunner is, in my way of thinking, being a good communicator because there’s really no other way to have hope for getting what you want at the end of the day.
- The thing that intrigued me about ‘Breaking Bad’ from day one was the idea of taking a character and transforming him.
- ‘Breaking Bad’… the beauty of it is, some people are always going to love ‘Breaking Bad’ more. But I run into people every day now who say ‘Better Call Saul’ is their favorite of the two. I love hearing that. I don’t know where I fall personally on that scale or that continuum; I try not to choose.
- We shot ‘Breaking Bad’ on film; we captured ‘Better Call Saul’ digitally. In the shooting of ‘Breaking Bad,’ we would have this steady, handheld, cinema verite sort of look, so we purposely went the opposite way with ‘Better Call’Saul’—locking in the cameras and making the movements smoother and more mechanical.
- If you’re too rigid in your thinking, you may miss some wonderful opportunities for storytelling.
