Sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. And when the dam bursts, all you can do is swim. The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon. We can only lie to ourselves for so long. We are tired, we are scared, denying it doesn`t c...
Meredith Grey
Like dogs in a wheel, birds in a cage, or squirrels in a chain, ambitious men still climb and climb, with great labor, and incessant anxiety, but never reach the top.
Robert Browning
I`ve always believed, in my heart of hearts, that it would be a better show if, when I crossed over to the desk, the band kept playing for an hour and I danced in a cage.
If I existed 200 years ago, all the other farmers in my community would be like, ...
Conan O`Brien
I get half-drowned, jump across an abyss and fly. I loved every minute of it. Getting attached to wires and flying was the most glorious feeling. It`s a lot easier than acting! [on her role in National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007) playing Nicolas Cage...
Helen Mirren
I was a foreigner, and I knew that most of the parts I would be offered would be foreigners. I knew I could not compete with Bruce Willis, Tom Cruise, and Nicolas Cage, and so I did not fight it. I saw the path I was destined to walk and decided to do the...
Peter Stormare
Discussing possible casting choices Mel Gibson and Nicolas Cage for Three Kings (1999) before he had signed to the movie: "Luckily, both those guys were tied and gagged in my apartment, and that was a problem for the casting department."
George Clooney
You build a cage based on your sense of the truth and your sense of the aspects of the character that need to tell the story. If you`ve done your job right, which I`ve had varying degrees of success doing at different times in my life, then you`re able to...
Sean Penn
Not to sound like a whore, but I`ve been with...I`ve worked with...some very attractive men. Nicolas Cage...Al Pacino...Ben Stiller...and Woody Allen.
Tea Leoni
I was coming out of the shower and I fell and all my body weight - I`m pretty fragile - all my body weight fell against my rib cage. And I bruised my lung very badly.
Michael Jackson
There was no way to stop what was going to happen. We just reached the point where all that the three of us really wanted to do was hold up a bank. And besides, standing there with a gun, cleaning out a teller`s cage - that`s about as fuckin` honest as yo...
Mark Frechette
Well, one of the first things is to restore the rule of law, to place the government back under the cage of law. Another thing is to stop falling for the myth of democracy.
Alfred Hamilton Barr
The point at which we worked with some of these actors, they weren`t really stars yet. Nicolas Cage was not a big star when we did Raising Arizona. A lot of these people were also virtually unknown, too, when we worked with them first.
Joel Coen
The most gruesome scene that we see is this woman in the cage getting her fingernails clipped. We never see any stabbings. We never see any stranglings. I very much think that you don`t have to show it to scare the audience. And when I wrote that scene, e...
Jeff Davis
That`s the thing about depression: A human being can survive almost anything, as long as she sees the end in sight. But depression is so insidious, and it compounds daily, that it`s impossible to ever see the end. The fog is like a cage without a key.
Elizabeth Wurtzel
So I started to learn Russian and I was one of those probably way too eager, annoying young actor kids who was trying to change all my lines to Russian, much to the dismay of the director and Nic Cage.
Jared Leto
My parents are in Lafayette, and my brother`s going to school in Houston now, ... Benji was left in New Orleans, and he actually survived the storm, but he escaped from his cage when my parents went back to salvage what was left of the house.
Hal Miller
Lane is a Tony-winning producer ( Thoroughly Modern Millie, La Cage aux Folles ) and part-time playwright. Based on the evidence here, Lane should stick to producing. He has attempted to write a romantic comedy/farce/backstage play. It fails as all threeâ...
William Stevenson
It gives us a look into a world that`s very much like `Traffic` was for drugs, this movie is for gun running. Dark at times, but I think Nic Cage is an incredible person to watch and very entertaining.
Jared Leto
I`m carrying the ball a lot tighter to my rib cage and up a little higher. I take those turnovers last year to heart. Those turnovers were costly and this year I`m going to try my best to prevent them.
Michael Pittman
I remember doing the sex scene in Red Rock West. I had to kiss Nic Cage and then look like I was going down on him. And he couldn`t do anything - he just had to lie there.
Lara Boyle
