I'm every bourgeois nightmare - a Cockney with this intelligence and a million dollars

I am in so many movies that are on TV at 2:00 a.m. that people think I am dead.

Every time you get a movie, you get a medical. So you know, you know you're alright for a couple of weeks.
michael
Let me put it this way: If you're sitting in a movie and you're watching me, and you say, 'Isn't that Michael Caine a wonderful actor?' then I've failed.
looks enough young
I feel like 35. At 35 you're old enough to know something and young enough to look forward to what you can do with the knowledge. So I stayed at 35!

I've been in every disco in the world. I saw a picture of my wife Shakira and I dancing in Studio 54; I didn't even know someone had taken that picture.

People say to me, why did you do those films, and I say, for money. It wasn't for diamond rings or kidney shaped swimming pools in Beverly Hills, it was in order to improve the lot of everyone around me.

couple grandchildren years
Someone said to me the other day: "Well, you're eventually going to live until 110." And I said: "Well, who's going to keep me? What age do I retire? 100?" How are you going to live all those years and who is going to keep you doing it? I have a couple of grandchildren now so I'm banking on them.

In my opinion, everybody is getting older and older. We have a great deal of dementia because nobody grew old enough to get it.

To me, growing old is great. It's the very best thing - considering the alternative.
