More quotes by Joaquin Phoenix

Everyone else will tell me I'm wrong, but that's my opinion.

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.
