More quotes by Joaquin Phoenix
I had a really wonderful upbringing. We were a tight family. It was wonderful to grow up with so many siblings. We were all just a year or two apart, and we were always so supportive of each other. I learned everything from my older brother and sister and taught it to my younger sisters.
Joaquin Phoenix
For me, I guess I'm the acting equivalent of somebody that jumps off buildings and parachutes.
Joaquin Phoenix
How can you work in film and still see the overt racism that exists in film and not just be furious all the time?
Joaquin Phoenix
I like being an employee. I like making somebody happy - and if they're not, then I'm crushed.
Joaquin Phoenix
I have this horrible sense of humor where I think discomfort is funny - partly because I experience discomfort a lot, and it's a way of laughing at it and getting a release.
Joaquin Phoenix
The reason I keep making movies is I hate the last thing I did. I'm trying to rectify my wrongs.
Joaquin Phoenix
It's an amazing feeling to go into a studio and really be alone.
Joaquin Phoenix
I always have the fear that, if I don't commit 100 percent to my work, then it's gonna suffer.
Joaquin Phoenix
I've made up so many stores about my name, I can't remember.
Joaquin Phoenix
In every film, whether it's a fictional character or not, you create an idea of the character and for me I always do a bad impersonation to start with.
Joaquin Phoenix
Getting into the character is difficult and letting go of your life and the things that kind of define you, whatever it is in life that's your daily routine because you sort of find yourself in this other life and that's difficult and the other end is difficult.
Joaquin Phoenix
I love scripts about relationships, and I love to see puppy love evolving into this mature love and communication.
Joaquin Phoenix
I've been prepping for my role as Medusa.
Joaquin Phoenix
I love having a master. I have no problem serving my director. That's my job. I want to make them happy.
Joaquin Phoenix
It takes nothing away from a human to be kind to an animal.
Joaquin Phoenix
Acting is real important to me. I love it, and it's something I care about.
Joaquin Phoenix
There are certain aspects of acting that I don't like. I'm not a person who loves being on set. I mean, I know people that have their espresso machines in their trailers and they like being in there and they put pictures on walls. But I don't like it. I don't like sitting around.
Joaquin Phoenix
I do like to collaborate, and I like hearing other people, and I like how somebody's performance will affect my own.
Joaquin Phoenix
Together, we can make a U.S. Department of Peace into a reality, and leave a gift of peace for generations to come.
Joaquin Phoenix
Animal rights is a part of my everyday life. When you live by example, you create a certain level of awareness. Friends of mine - people I have never discussed animal rights or vegetarianism with - are adopting vegetarian habits because they see it.
