Favorite Quotes From Nicolas Cage

I am at the point where I know that I’m doing something right even if a movie receives mixed reviews. I don’t want it to be too difficult for anyone, and I don’t want it to be too hard for me. I’m open to trying something new.

What I find most interesting about me is that things like caffeine and stunts relax me. I notice that everything around me slows down when I have a bit of gel put on my arm to light me up, or when I am about to enter a high-speed car chase, or rev a motorcycle pretty fast.
