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 read books like mad, but I am careful to to let anything I read influence me.
Michael Caine
We can only use British actors because everybody's got to talk exactly the same.
Michael Caine
Hollywood is a cross between a health farm, a recreation center and an insane asylum. It's a company town, and I happen to like the company!
Michael Caine
I don't like getting up early in the morning and learning all that stuff. I work with offers that I can't refuse.
