More quotes by 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
I actually enjoy working with green screen, because I can imagine all that stuff happening, and I really cut my teeth on a movie I made called Adaptation where I had to imagine four-page dialogue scenes with my twin brother, who was nothing more than a tennis ball and a gas stand.
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
I think that the best characters are the ones who both manage to be attractive and repulsive at the same time.
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
If I do do a sequel, I'm going to have to know for sure that the script is better than the original. So I'm going to be very careful about that because I'm not eager to repeat myself.
Nicolas Cage
I find it inspiring and I always think when I'm working on something new, whether it's a new kind of character or a new kind of story or new kind of camera, it gets my creative wheels spinning.
Nicolas Cage
My house is basically a trailer. I live a circus lifestyle. I'm always moving. It's not always easy for people that live with me, but that's the path I chose.
Nicolas Cage
Nobody can make a movie as exciting as Jerry Bruckheimer. When it's a Jerry Bruckheimer movie that it's going to have lots of chrome and gloss, it's going to be sexy, and it's going to be big and fun.
Nicolas Cage
With my name in cement, I feel actualised. - On cementing his hand prints on Sunset Boulevard
Nicolas Cage
I'm always going to judge somebody on their work ethic, and whether or not they made me feel something, or whether or not I felt they did a good job. To me, it's important to try to block anything personal out and look at the performance, in any field.
Nicolas Cage
Most of my favourite moments in film have been when I've had an opportunity to say something from scratch, something original, whether I jotted down a few lines or it came out in improvisation.
Nicolas Cage
Remakes are always a challenge and they always are sitting ducks.
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
Those who have the ability to take action have the responsibility to take action.
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
I happen to still like really dark, dramatic, fractured characters. They're the reason I got into movies.
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
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
There are over 550 million firearms in worldwide circulation. That's one firearm for every twelve people on the planet. The only question is, how do we arm the other 11?
Nicolas Cage
