More quotes by 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
First of all the criteria that I have that goes into any career decision is whether or not I have the life experience, emotional resources to play the part truthfully or the imagination. Second, would be the director.
Nicolas Cage
All movies on some level can aspire to be more than just whatever the label is of the movie.
Nicolas Cage
I haven't made anything I don't believe in. I've always started a movie with a song in my heart, and even when I'm a little unclear about it, something magical happens and it comes into focus in a way that I'm feeling good about.
Nicolas Cage
I definitely went through my magic phase. I think all little boys do at some point or another - they get fascinated by magic tricks.
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 always see America as really belonging to the Native Americans. Even though I'm American, I still feel like a visitor in my own country.
Nicolas Cage
Film has lost something in the translation to high tech. It's become so super-real. It's with digital this and stereo that, and everything's like a CD.
Nicolas Cage
I'm going to steal the Declaration of Independence.
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
I haven't isolated myself. I am not living on a yacht somewhere. I am not tucked away or behind a gate somewhere. I am not flying on a private plane. I am going to the airport, I am with people, some of the interactions are good, some of them are not so good, but it keeps me in touch with being, you know, part of society.
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 do like characters that have flaws, some sort of pathos to them that they are trying to sort out.
Nicolas Cage
I love all animals. I have a fascination with fish, birds, whales - sentient life - insects, reptiles.
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
You can choose your family sometimes. You can choose people, it could be a teacher, it could be a professor, it could be someone you work with that actually genuinely cares about you and wants you to succeed.
Nicolas Cage
Remakes are always a challenge and they always are sitting ducks.
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
I like being at that place where you can either fall or stand. That's where I think you really have a shot at doing something truthful.
Nicolas Cage
I've really had good luck working with younger actors. Every younger actor that I have worked with has always been really on top of their game and fascinating to watch.
Nicolas Cage
