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'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
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
I enjoy humour more than anything, I don't really sit around banging my head and crying all the time.
Joaquin Phoenix
I guess I had what you could call an unconventional upbringing.
Joaquin Phoenix

Joaquin Phoenix
Acting is real important to me. I love it, and it's something I care about.
Joaquin Phoenix
I always have the fear that, if I don't commit 100 percent to my work, then it's gonna suffer.
