More quotes by Michael Caine
I just love to go home, no matter where I am, the most luxurious hotel suite in the world, I love to go home.
Michael Caine
You get paid the same for a bad film as you do for a good one.
Michael Caine

I try to make everyone around me feel comfortable.
Michael Caine
I spent 30 years of my life not being wanted at all for films.

Michael Caine
My own mentality is that I've retired. They send me these scripts and if I absolutely have to do it, then I go to work.
Michael Caine

Michael Caine
If you put someone on screen long enough, they become the hero.
Michael Caine
Be like a duck. Calm on the surface, but always paddling like the dickens underneath.
Michael Caine

Michael Caine
A lot of people said, Who do you think you are? I told them I know exactly who I am and I'll tell you exactly where I'm going.
Michael Caine

Michael Caine
There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures and the Dutch.
Michael Caine
Funny things happen to you in movies for silly reasons.
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
Books were my window on the world. Growing up at the Elephant and Castle, which was very rough, my paradise was the library.
Michael Caine
Save your money. You're going to need twice as much money in your old age as you think.
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
I don't like getting up early in the morning and learning all that stuff. I work with offers that I can't refuse.
