More quotes by Michael Caine
I've made the transition from star to character actor and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.
Michael Caine

Michael Caine
I've got a lot of back-up because my father was a Catholic, my mother was a Protestant, I was educated by Jews and I'm married to a Muslim. So I won't lose out on a technicality.
Michael Caine
For Cider House Rules, I was doing a New England accent.

Michael Caine
If I work with a bad actor, my reaction is to immediately become worse than they are.
Michael Caine
80 percent of any gang is not there to attack someone. They're there so no one will attack them.
Michael Caine
I think what is British about me is my feelings and awareness of others and their situations. English people are always known to be well mannered and cold but we are not cold - we don't interfere in your situation. If we are heartbroken, we don't scream in your face with tears - we go home and cry on our own.
Michael Caine
I won an Academy Award for 'The Cider House Rules,' playing an American.
Michael Caine
I don't have to work. I suppose I should retire. But I enjoy working.
Michael Caine
I want to stick around with the big boys. I don't want to be in the old folks home.
Michael Caine
