Nicolas Cage
I just try to keep it fresh. I try to keep it interesting. The truth is my roots are independently spirited dramas that are small, and I will always go back to that well, because that's where I broke out of. But I'm going to keep doing as many different movies as I possibly can.
Nicolas Cage
How do you rebel in a family of rebels? That's the age-old question. I guess I could have by not going into the arts, but the thing is, I couldn't do anything else.
Nicolas Cage

Nicolas Cage
I want to always find new ways of reinventing myself.
Nicolas Cage
Movies work, in my opinion, on the best level when they're more enigmatic, when we don't say it's this or that and where it raises more questions than answers.
Nicolas Cage
Nobody wants to watch perfection.
Nicolas Cage
