It is that, but really, it's about how we don't recognise the little things in life, or appreciate the little things in life like belonging. A sense of belonging is a big thing today.

More quotes by James Caan
Someone's always saying, It's not whether you win or lose, but if you feel that way, you're as good as dead.
James Caan
I remember at 16 years old, growing up in Queens, we were punks, but hey, when we went to the theater, we wore a shirt and tie! Similarly, I believe that to keep movie theaters in existence, they're gonna have to make 'em an event, have a couch, a table and drinks or something. Otherwise, there's no reason to get out of your bed!
James Caan
Never stop asking yourself whether you can do things better. Keep testing every aspect of your business to the nth degree, and challenge every one of your assumptions. The tougher you are on yourself now, the tougher your business will be out there in the real world.
James Caan
I went to a shrink once, but I caught him going to a fortune-teller so I quit.
James Caan
Obstacles are only opportunities to succeed or fail how we handle them determines what will happen.
James Caan
What I do quite honestly and seriously and not in any way being humble is not as important as what the garbage collector does. People make actors important.
James Caan
Sometimes it seems like this is the choice - either kick ass or kiss ass.
James Caan
There's a big difference between wanting to work and having to work. And I had to learn that the hard way. Now money is very important to me, because I ain't got it.
James Caan
I've never been difficult to anybody or with anybody on a picture. Especially when you're in that nice status of hierarchy of actors and actresses who get to approve directors. Because once you make that choice, it's my belief that the director's boss.
James Caan
I lost my passion for work. No, that's a negative statement. I just had a bigger passion for something else, for my son, and growing up with him.
James Caan
Showing up every day isn't enough. There are a lot of guys who show up every day who shouldn't have showed up at all.
James Caan
It's a very charming movie about the mob - a real stretch for me.
James Caan
I never rode a bull - I'm not that stupid.
James Caan
You're the only one who's closing your eyes at night. There's no one else who can do it for you.
James Caan
Success is the result of clear goal, unshakable confidence, proper planning, enthusiastic ACTION and consistent persistence.
James Caan
No matter what heights you achieve, even if you're Brad Pitt, the slide is coming, sure as death and taxes.
James Caan
People say, 'Gee, you do a lot of mafia movies.' I think I've done two, out of 60.
James Caan
Actors have bodyguards and entourages not because anybody wants to hurt them - who would want to hurt an actor? - but because they want to get recognized. God forbid someone doesn't recognize them.
James Caan
To get over my divorce, I got a prescription to live at the Playboy Mansion for a while.
James Caan
There's nothing more boring than actors talking about acting.
James Caan
