"Only you can decide what's best for you, Jesse. Not him, not me."
Mike Ehrmantraut, laying out the theme of the movie.

Mike: If I were your age, starting fresh... Alaska. It's the last frontier. Up there, you can be anything you want.

Mike: One could.
Jesse: Put things right.
Mike: No. Sorry, kid, that's the one thing you can never do.

Badger: You're apexing too early. You're apexing too early.
Skinny Pete: I'm apexing at the apex, bitch! Don't be telling me how to drive and shit! You couldn't drive a two button-elevator.
Badger: You couldn't drive Miss Daisy.
Skinny Pete: Whatever that means. You couldn't drive a short bus full of slow kids to the zoo.
Badger: Yeah, because I'd be too distracted by you. You'd be sitting up front, in your special helmet, trying to hump my leg. On account you couldn't drive Thelma & Louise off that cliff. Apex!
Skinny Pete: I can't apex any more than I'm already apexing!
Badger: You drive like a blind guy with no legs.
Skinny Pete: Dude, you— You drive like my dead grandmoms.
Badger: That's disrespectful.

Walter White

"Not many of us get a chance to start fresh. Good luck, Mr. Driscoll."
Ed the Disappearer

Jesse: I was thinking about that thing you said about the universe. Going where the universe takes you? Right on. I think it's a cool philosophy.
Jane: I was being metaphorical. It's a terrible philosophy. I've gone where the universe takes me my whole life. It's better to make those decisions for yourself.
