I was so poor for so long that I didn't use anything. I didn't drive cars, I didn't eat very much. So, I figured the world owed me a debt, so I've been eating very well and have had a very big car for a long time. But I still haven't caught up with my youth.

I'm very, very family oriented. I'm a big cook and a good connoisseur and I only drink very good red wines now.

I have enough money not to do pictures ever. I'm seventy years old. I don't want to get up at 6:30 in the morning and learn ten pages of dialogue to do with a bunch of creeps I don't like. It's gotta be fun for me.
Michael Caine

I did everything. I ran my life exactly as I wanted to, all the time. I never listened to anybody. I'm pig-headed.
