Joaquin Phoenix

No, I don't want to talk about River. I have nothing to say about it that I would want to be public.

When I decide to do something, I stick with it, total commitment.

Whether you think a film will affect society or it's plain entertainment, it's all excellent, it's all noble.

I just love good movies. And not every movie you're going to end up in is always going to turn out right, but at least walk into it with the right intention.

My movie career - if such a thing even exists - is laughable.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.
