But the whole point of the Sixties was that you had to take people as they were. If you came in with us you left your class, and colour, and religion behind, that was what the Sixties was all about.

More quotes by 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.
Michael Caine
I think it would be great for the Academy to recognize old age.
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
If I see any injustice done, I have a big enough mouth and the position to open up about it.
Michael Caine
If you're a movie star, you get the girl, you lose the girl, and then you get her back. But if you're a character like me, you lose the girl, then you get another one, then you get another one, then you lose them all, then you lose your life.
Michael Caine
Use the difficulties - if you can't avoid them
Michael Caine
I love the start of autumn when the trees in my garden change the colour of their leaves in one last dazzling display.
Michael Caine
When becoming a character, you have to steal. Steal whatever you see. You can even steal from other actors' characterizations but if you do, only steal from the best.
Michael Caine
You get paid the same for a bad film as you do for a good one.
Michael Caine
You're never too old to be crazy.
Michael Caine
You have to remember, I never became successful or wealthy till I was 30.
Michael Caine
Obsession is a young man’s game.
Michael Caine
I was born Maurice Joseph Micklewhite. Imagine signing that autograph! You'd get a broken arm. So I changed my name to Michael Caine after Humphrey Bogart's 'The Caine Mutiny,' which was playing in the theater across from the telephone booth where I learned that I'd gotten my first TV job.
Michael Caine
If you really want to become an actor, but only providing that acting doesn't interfere with your golf game, political ambitions and your life, you don't want to become an actor. Not only is acting more than a part time job, it's more than a full time job. It's a full time obsession.
Michael Caine
I'm hoping there's an afterlife. As you get older, you hope even more fervently.
Michael Caine
Some men just want to watch the world burn
Michael Caine
I don't worry about the last shot or the next shot. I concentrate. Every shot gets a clean slate. And when a shot is over, I wipe it out absolutely. Tell a joke or something. If you worry about how you looked, how well you did, you'll go insane.
Michael Caine
I didn't know what I knew. I wasn't aware of what I knew.
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
I try to make everyone around me feel comfortable.
Michael Caine
