I Learned About Life Before

I Was Born Maurice Joseph Micklewhite. Imagine Signing That Autograph! You'd Get A Broken Arm. So I Changed My Name To Michael Caine After Humphrey Bogart's 'the Caine Mutiny,' Which Was Playing In The Theater Across From The Telephone Booth Where I Learned That I'd Gotten My First Tv Job.

I Don't Like Getting Up Early In The Morning And Learning All That Stuff. I Work With Offers That I Can't Refuse.

I'm Not Tough Anymore, I'm 82.

I Used To Get The Girl; Now I Get The Part. In 'the Quiet American' You May Have Noticed I Got The Part And The Girl. It's A Milestone For Me, Because It's The Last Time I'm Going To Get The Girl.

The Greatest Luxury Is Not Driving. I Didn't Own A Car Until I Was 30, And That Was A Rolls-royce, So It Was Cheaper To Insure A Chauffeur. I Never Want To Drive Again. My Mind Is Always On Other Things. I Hate Parking, And I'm Very Short-tempered And Would Get Road Rage, I'm Sure.
