Additional quotes by Michael Caine
[On his National Service] And then when I was 19 they sent me to Korea – which was not a very nice idea for your 19th birthday. I wasn't a big professional soldier, and it wasn't a big war.
The Korean War was like the First World War, we all lived in trenches and fought each other in the dark; but I was still s—t scared, as everybody else was. So I understood those things – death and close friends dying and getting injured.
My worst roles have been in movies I made solely for the money — like Jaws – The Revenge.
I was offered a small part in a fourth of the 'big shark' movies at a tremendous fee, and I took it.
I have never seen the film, but by all accounts, it was terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built, and it's terrific.

[On his 50-year long marriage to his wife Shakira] [W]e went to Vegas for my 40th birthday, and we got married. It was where a lot of famous people had got married, because there were pictures of all of them on the wall. I was looking round thinking, f—g hell, I’m getting married where whatisname got married, and so-and-so.
And then, at the end, I looked round, and realised every single person on the wall had got divorced. I thought, oh s—t, this isn't going to last long, then.
