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.

More quotes by Joaquin Phoenix
I don't bring my life into a character at all.
Joaquin Phoenix
I enjoy writing rhymes and sitting alone in a room listening to beats. It's pretty amazing.
Joaquin Phoenix
I guess I had what you could call an unconventional upbringing.
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 made up so many stores about my name, I can't remember.
Joaquin Phoenix
I would try and sing along with bands that I like but it sounded so atrocious that I couldn't.
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
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
I always have the fear that, if I don't commit 100 percent to my work, then it's gonna suffer.
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've worked with a lot of people on music and often times those things don't work out.
Joaquin Phoenix
It takes nothing away from a human to be kind to an animal.
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
The footage that you're about to watch of China's dog-leather trade is one of the worst things I've ever seen.
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
For me, I guess I'm the acting equivalent of somebody that jumps off buildings and parachutes.
Joaquin Phoenix
Acting is real important to me. I love it, and it's something I care about.
Joaquin Phoenix
That to me was really, certainly, the gateway into discovering John, ... I feel I found the speaking voice through the singing voice.
Joaquin Phoenix
I just I don't feel challenged by acting anymore. I don't enjoy the process anymore.
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.
