You start pretending to have fun, you might have a little by accident.
Michael Caine
This is your life, Larry. Learn to enjoy what you've got.
Michael Caine
I never look back at all. All of my sentiment and emotion goes into my family. I'm an extremely family oriented person and I have a very, very happy family life. That doesn't just include blood relations. I have friends who are close to me.
Michael Caine
I never regret anything. I always said that when I'm old, I want to be sitting there regretting the things that I did and not the things that I didn't do and now I'm old, and I don't regret anything! I had fun. I had fun, and I'm still having it.

Michael Caine
Just because I have made a point of never losing my accent it doesn't mean I'm an eel-and-pie yob.
Michael Caine
One of the great things with comedy is that there's no such thing as a mediocre comedy it's either uproarious or crap. That's the problem.
Michael Caine
You cannot have one bathroom. And it don't matter how much you love your wife and everything, 'cause you wind up with no room at all. You just get a little corner and you've got a toothbrush and your paste and a shaving brush and a razor. And you can never get in there. So you must have two bathrooms. You really must. I think it's essential.
Michael Caine
I admired Marlon Brando as I grew up. I though he was one of the finest screen actors around.
Michael Caine
I've been acting a long time, and I can play a Cockney gangster or a womanizer in my sleep or standing on my head. But what I try to do is I try to find characters that are as far away from me as I possibly can and then make them real. A French Nazi is about as far away from me as I can possibly get without actually going to Mars or something.
Michael Caine
If you're blond, as I am, and you have blond lashes, you have to wear mascara, otherwise you're invisible on stage.
