God bless my father, but he always spoke in this continental, literary accent, probably because he was a professor of comparative literature and he made the decision to speak with distinction.

More quotes by Nicolas Cage
I'm not a trained actor. I'm someone who is autodidactic and learned on my own.
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
One of the things that's interesting to me is I find things like caffeine and stunts actually relax me. When they're putting a bit of gel on my arm and lighting me on fire, or when I'm about to go into a high-speed car chase or rev a motorcycle up pretty fast, I find everything else around me slows down.
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 do enjoy animated movies.
Nicolas Cage
Film acting is one of the only industries where you're criticized for working hard. In any other industry, it's considered a quality and something to behold.
Nicolas Cage
There is a misperception, if you will, in critical response or even in Hollywood, that I can only do exaggerated characters. Or what they would call over-the-top performances. Well, this is completely false.
Nicolas Cage
As a child, these colourful superheroes that could fly, or were horrifying like Ghost Rider and the Hulk, with this tremendous rage or these supernatural powers, provided an escape for me from my mundane existence, from my lack of friends or my inability to communicate well with people. They liberated me.
Nicolas Cage
I think I've spent more time in front of a camera than off camera. That's just the way it is.
Nicolas Cage
Some things are true whether you believe in them or not.
Nicolas Cage
Science fiction is a way that I can go into the abstract, go into the imagination, and audiences are still willing to go along for the ride.
Nicolas Cage
I love it all. I don't want to go through my career with one hand tied behind my back. I love making kids happy. I love the midnight audience. I like intense dramas. And I like high-adrenaline action films.
Nicolas Cage
Zoology has always been interesting to me. Nature is fascinating.
Nicolas Cage
The fact that 'Astro Boy' appealed to me as a boy in America was proof that the story and character transcend cultural stereotypes.
Nicolas Cage
When I play supernatural characters in 'Ghost Rider' or 'City Of Angels,' the possibilities are limitless. The possibilities are endless, you can do so much with that.
Nicolas Cage
I went to New Orleans for the first time for Wild at Heart, and I kept going back to make more movies there. I've become very close to the city and part of me does feel like a New Orleanian.
Nicolas Cage
I love all animals. I have a fascination with fish, birds, whales - sentient life - insects, reptiles.
Nicolas Cage
I never say never, but I haven't been given the quality of script to compel me to go on television.
Nicolas Cage
If you get a chance, whenever you're traveling, do go to the local boutique comic book shop and don't buy your comics online 'cause those guys are going to go extinct, in a minute here, and we want to be able to have those experiences with our kids.
Nicolas Cage
I would definitely return to Austria. They were all good experiences for me, but definitely Austria because there were some ancient Celtic, sacred sites that were in the forest that were quite beautiful.
Nicolas Cage
