Mark Margolis’s 5 most popular quotes
- Honestly, all of ‘Breaking Bad’ was the best television experience of my entire life – the writing, the crew, the other actors.
- You don’t play villains like they are villains. You play them like you know exactly where they are coming from. Which hopefully you do.
- I was a student of Stella Adler and then later Lee Strasberg, and they were into sensory work. At its best, acting is not about words – even when the words are important.
- I saw an Emmy ad that AMC took out with all the ‘Breaking Bad’ nominees’ photos, and there’s my picture from the show. It’s like World’s Ugliest Man – I’m an automatic winner in that category.
- There is an endless range of parts I have not played. I would love to do a whole slew of period pieces. I also used to do a lot of stage work, and I would like to go back to that from time to time.
