‘My career’s been a steady, interesting, weird, frustrating, fun journey at all different times.’ – Elizabeth Reaser
‘What I love about ‘Breaking Bad’ is the reflection of many people’s – it’s more real in terms of people have faults, people have character traits that they don’t like about themselves.

‘I don’t have a real home. When I got ‘Avatar,’ I sold everything that I owned because I knew it was going to be a long journey.

‘My personal style at this point in my life is more audio; it’s more driven on less visual and more musicality.
