More quotes by Joaquin Phoenix
Every single movie that I've ever done has affected my life I always feel more changed by a character than I affect them or change them, always. I mean, that's just kind of the way it is.
Joaquin Phoenix
My personal life absolutely goes down the drain when I start working that's something that I'm incapable of doing.
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 love doing the music. I love programming beats and kind of working on the music as much, if not more, than the actual rapping.
Joaquin Phoenix
They tell you to memorize your lines, follow your light, and hit your marks. Those are the three things that you shouldn't do. You should not learn your lines, you should not hit your mark, and you should never follow your light. Find your light - that's my opinion. Everyone else will tell me I'm wrong, but that's my opinion.
Joaquin Phoenix
Might I be ridiculous? Might my career in music be laughable? Yeah, that's possible, but that's certainly not my intention.
Joaquin Phoenix
I'm very thankful for the people that I've had the opportunity to work with. I have a good life. It's been amazing. I'm not complaining. It's not like acting has ruined me so I have to leave. It's not that. I'm just done with it.
Joaquin Phoenix
I just I don't feel challenged by acting anymore. I don't enjoy the process anymore.
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.
Joaquin Phoenix
I like being an employee. I like making somebody happy - and if they're not, then I'm crushed.
Joaquin Phoenix
You see so many earnest characters in movies all the time, everyone has a purpose.
Joaquin Phoenix
I've been in clubs. I don't like being in an enclosed place with really loud music, and a lot of drunk people. It's not my idea of a good time. It's just such a miserable life.
Joaquin Phoenix
I enjoy writing rhymes and sitting alone in a room listening to beats. It's pretty amazing.
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
I'm going to sound a little weird here, but I like to spend a lot of time on my own in the woods. I don't exactly sneak off in the middle of the night, but I like to be in a place where no one can reach me by phone or e-mail.
Joaquin Phoenix
For me, I guess I'm the acting equivalent of somebody that jumps off buildings and parachutes.
Joaquin Phoenix
I'm proud of my brother. I would never not want to be associated with him.
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
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
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.
