7 Wonderfully Candid Quotes About Fatherhood From Celebrity Dads (And One Random Guy On The Street)

Actor Hank Azaria started producing a documentary called "Fatherhood" to find out why in the world anyone would want to become a dad.

Then, his girlfriend Katie got pregnant. Suddenly, the premise of Azaria's film did a 180; it became a personal account of the couple's journey to parenthood. Their son, Hal, is now 4.

Along the way, Azaria asked some of his pals -- y'know, Bryan Cranston, Mike Myers, Kevin Bacon... -- about their experiences raising kids. Naturally, the result is wonderfully entertaining and true.

Below, are seven of the dads' best quotes from the first episode of "Fatherhood,"
