Joaquin Phoenix
I don't spend most of my life in front of the media.
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
The offers were, like, a lot of money - maybe not for other actors, but definitely for me. But I don't want that power. I don't want $20-million power.

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've never made $20 million. I'm scared. I don't know if you gave me The Ring if I could carry it and bring it to Ozamorph, or whatever you call it.
Joaquin Phoenix
