More quotes by Nicolas Cage
If you have people that totally support you and have your back, I feel like you have all the confidence in the world, and you believe that you can do things that most people can't achieve. I feel that's really important.
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
Generally my instinct is to not do biographical movies. I want to build characters and not be locked into playing a part in history.
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 do enjoy animated movies.
Nicolas Cage
Just because you're a man doesn't mean that you can't raise your kid. I think that families should stay together, but if you are a single father, don't give up no matter what they say.
Nicolas Cage
I always add a year to myself, so I'm prepared for my next birthday. So when I was 39, I was already 40.
Nicolas Cage
Some things are true whether you believe in them or not.
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
I always wanted to find a way to apply my acting in a big mad monster movie where I was transforming into this scary entity.
Nicolas Cage
'Knowing' is one of those movies where you're going to get the spectacle, and you're going to have the entertainment in the grand science fiction tradition. But also, it will perhaps stimulate some discussion to help you sort out on your own where you might choose to go in terms of your own needs. Now, I say that without preaching.
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 have a love/ hate relationship with the city of New Orleans, which is the strongest kind of relationship.
Nicolas Cage
One of the pluses of getting older is you set some limits.
Nicolas Cage
I like to work with young people, because young people haven’t had their dreams kicked out of them yet. Full of confidence, and imagination, and vision, and when they score that all gets empowered.
Nicolas Cage
I think I've become more relaxed throughout my career. I don't feel the need to jump up and down and make a big noise to get people to pay attention to me. I don't need to do punk rock gestures or eat a cockroach or do something weird to say I exist.
Nicolas Cage
The biggest problem for me was feeling that as I became more balanced and a better man that I wouldn't have the fire to create from.
Nicolas Cage
I think what makes people fascinating is conflict, it's drama, it's the human condition. Nobody wants to watch perfection.
Nicolas Cage
I want to make all kinds of movies. I do want to make big movies that are a lot of fun to go to, but I also want to make movies that are going to stimulate some thought and maybe raise some awareness.
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
