Joaquin Phoenix Quotes
«This is the best thing I ever did,»
Author: Joaquin Phoenix
«He was an amazing man. He really ended up being the voice of the voiceless, the people that many would just as soon forget about or pretend they don't exist. John spoke up for them. He spoke from the heart with sheer honesty. He seemed to have no regrets, and that's unique, especially nowadays with celebrities, when everyone's so concerned about their image and saying the right thing to maintain their following. John said what he felt regardless of whether it was popular or not.»

«That was Johnny Cash. He was a complete person. He acknowledged the darker side of his mind. He didn't try to deny it. Most of us are forced into labeling ourselves or others, but that's something John wouldn't do. This is a man who sang, 'I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die,' on 'Folsom Prison Blues,' and then would revel in singing the spirituals and would, in fact, leave Sun Records because Sam Phillips wouldn't let him record an album of gospel songs.»

«James told me, ... If people want to hear Johnny Cash, they can go get the record. There was such soul to his music, it seems he was compelled to tell a story. John had something to say that really came from the heart.»

«That song, every verse changes keys. ... I Walk the Line.»
Author: Joaquin Phoenix
«That to me was really, certainly, the gateway into discovering John, ... I feel I found the speaking voice through the singing voice.»
Author: Joaquin Phoenix
«I’m not a singer by any means. If it was a fictional character where it was a made-up voice, it might have been harder. But I had a specific voice to go after, so I had to work specific muscles and really work at hitting certain notes. It was nice to have a recognizable voice as a goal.»
Author: Joaquin Phoenix
«There's really nothing I can do about that. My work is to just make the film and try to make it as true as possible.»
