A Quote by Vince Gilligan
Whatever it takes to get you where you need to be, there's nothing wrong with the method acting or having to growl and bang your head in a corner and get into the moment and work yourself into a lather - if that's what it takes, so be it.

Sometimes there's something that you need a few takes to get it and if it takes 15 takes, it takes 15 takes. It really depends.
Be methodical if you would succeed in business, or in anything. Have a work for every moment, and mind the moment's work.

It's that need to occasionally bounce off the walls, letting anything happen for any reason, and having nothing to guide you that is the joy.
Recovery isn’t easy, at first. It takes time. It takes more work, sometimes, than you think you’re willing to do. But it is worth every hard day, every tear, every terrified moment. It’s worth it, because the trade-off is this: you let go of your eating disorder, and you get back your life.
