While Nicolas Cage hasn't made a movie that was actually any good in years, every performance he's given has still been a wonder to behold. Even now, in an era of his career that's less carefully picking out the right parts and more trying to make as much money as possible to take care of his financial issues — dude's been in sixteen movies over the past five years — he's never given a phoned-in performance.

Which is why we're thankful the folks over at Movie Miscellany found it in their hearts to comb through all of Cage's movies — except, for some reason, Raising Arizona and Peggy Sue Got Married, which certainly hurts the entire endeavor a bit — and put together the best 100 quotes from Cage's career. Enjoy:

Um

Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans and Kick Ass were both very, very good films.

You're not wrong about Kick Ass, but his role is a walk-on at best. But Bad Lieutenant ... I'm still not seeing what people "like" about that movie. Many certainly enjoy it, though!
