More quotes by Nicolas Cage
I love art, I love music. I can listen to Stockhausen and a very experimental, avant-garde approach, and I can listen to Beethoven and have a more classical, traditional approach. Why not be able to do that with film performance?
Nicolas Cage
Personally, my interests are ancient history and ancient civilizations. In my own life, I'd like to go to places like Easter Island.
Nicolas Cage
I love working with younger actors because they always come into the game full of energy and ideas that challenge me and keep me learning and stimulated.
Nicolas Cage
I try to make two movies a year. To me, that's not too much. On top of that, I like to work.
Nicolas Cage
To be a good actor you have to be something like a criminal, to be willing to break the rules to strive for something new.
Nicolas Cage
Halloween has always been fascinating to me from a very young age. I think any actor would be fascinated by Halloween because it's one of the only holidays that advocates dressing up in makeup and costumes and transforming oneself.
Nicolas Cage
When I started experimenting with fantasy and horror films and looking for characters who had some sort of emotional or mental difficulty, I saw opportunities to express my music - dare I say art - in a way that I could get a bit surreal.
Nicolas Cage
I'm not afraid to play ugly - look at 'Adaptation.' I looked like a turd that a cat had coughed up.
Nicolas Cage
I wasn't any good at romnace. I was a total nerd. My thing is, I was just too romantic. I was the romantic goofball. I wasn't cynical enough or harsh enough. I cared too much, so I always made a fool out of myself.
Nicolas Cage
For me, acting was a way of taking destructive energy and doing something productive with it, and in that way it was quite a life saver.
Nicolas Cage
How do you say one actor is better than another actor? You can definitely say that in the Olympics if it's the same race and someone wins the race. The only way to really do it and have it be sincere would be if you get all the actors together, and they're all playing the same part, and then you rate which one made you feel the most.
Nicolas Cage
I've always believed that the greatest actors are the ones that have the voices that are imitable.
Nicolas Cage
Remakes are always a challenge and they always are sitting ducks.
Nicolas Cage
I've been lucky to work with some of the most creative people and it's true that I enjoy filmmaking and I'm an enthusiast.
Nicolas Cage
There's a fine line between the Method actor and the schizophrenic.
Nicolas Cage
When you start a movie, it's not like other kinds of work that you have when you know your boss for years or colleagues for years. You're meeting everyone, mostly, for the first time. You have to get comfortable with those people so you can perform, because the first thing that is going to shut you down is any kind of anxiety.
Nicolas Cage
I find children inspiring. The way they look at the world. The magical world they live in, to me, is inspiring.
Nicolas Cage
Zoology has always been interesting to me. Nature is fascinating.
Nicolas Cage
I will promise you that if I can give you two good scenes -- which is what I always try to do in every movie -- then I feel like I'm doing my job.
Nicolas Cage
I think anything that opens my mind and triggers my imagination I'm reading. I like to read science fiction and imagine the character. Anything that keeps my imagination flowing.
Nicolas Cage
