More quotes by 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
For me, I guess I'm the acting equivalent of somebody that jumps off buildings and parachutes.
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 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
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
I don't know a single person in life that doesn't have conflict.
Joaquin Phoenix
I loved hip-hop. The first stuff I heard was Public Enemy, and I couldn't believe it. It was amazing, and I've always loved hip-hop.
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
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
I would try and sing along with bands that I like but it sounded so atrocious that I couldn't.
