Letter "J" » Joaquin Phoenix Quotes
«I think that when John started out, he had the desire to be a voice on the radio, but he didn't anticipate a grueling tour schedule and all that. I don't think he necessarily wanted to play live. I had a book listing the gigs that they played back then, and it was unbelievable. In the late '60s he was still driving to concerts himself.»
«[When Mangold chose Phoenix for the part,] I bought a guitar, ... John always had a guitar. He'd come offstage and there's footage of him sitting around talking to fans and he'll pick up a guitar and just start playing it.»
«Not just trying to pull off a distinctive voice, which was huge. But the story takes place over so many years ? it's a big story. And, also, finding a balance between impersonation and actually becoming someone appealed to me.»
«John wasn't (Jimi) Hendrix. It was real simple ... we rehearsed a lot.»
«I know you guys would probably rather see Reese [Witherspoon ].»
«Who would have ever thought I would win in the comedy and musical category?»
«I was fascinated that this was the same person.»
«It was terrifying at times. One of my first fires I went into at the academy -- and this was controlled fire by the way, this was with two instructors on every floor -- I still panicked and called out 'mayday' right in the middle of the fire,»
«What the training did was teach me to trust my equipment and trust the other people that I'm working with, ... The firefighters will say, 'You should always be scared. If you're not scared then you should get out of the department because that's when you get hurt.' You have to have a level of fear and a level of respect for what it is you're doing, and if not, I think it breads a level of complacency, which is very dangerous.»
«I'm shocked when I don't get fired, so to get a nomination is a pleasant surprise.»
