Walter White [To Pinkman]: You’re really lucky, you know that? You didn’t have to wait your whole life to do something special.

Daisy’s Destruction
They think they know who I am
All they know is I love to kill
Face down, dead on the ground
Find me before another is found
The One Who Knocks
Walter White: Who are you talking to right now? Who is it you think you see? Do you know how much I make a year? I mean, even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe it. Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going in to work? A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly-up, disappears. It ceases to exist without me. No. You clearly don’t know who you’re talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks.

Smoke on the Water
James McGill: Help me out here. Did I dream it, or did I have $1,600,000 on my desk in cash? When I close my eyes, I can still see it. It’s burned in my retinas like I was staring into the sun. No one on God’s green earth knew we had it. We could have split it 50/50. We could have gone home with $800,000 each, tax-free.
Mike Ehrmantraut: Your point being?
James McGill: Why didn’t we? What stopped us?
Mike Ehrmantraut: I remember you saying something about doing the right thing.
James McGill: I don’t even know what that means.
Mike Ehrmantraut: You want to know why I didn’t take that money? Is that what you’re asking?
James McGill: Yeah, that’s what I’m asking.
Mike Ehrmantraut: Me, personally… I was hired to do a job. I did it. That’s as far as it goes.
James McGill: Yeah. Well, I know what stopped me. And you know what? It’s never stopping me again.
