More quotes by John Frusciante
I'm not interested in meeting people's expectations, and I'm not interested in pleasing people.
John Frusciante
And for me the only way to live life is to grab the bull by the horns and call up recording studios and set dates to go in recording studios. To try and accomplish something.
John Frusciante
You don't throw your life away Going Inside You get to know who's watching you And besides you resides in your body
John Frusciante
I don’t pay attention to the world. I just have the art I like and the music I like and for me that’s the whole world
John Frusciante
I think the feelings in my music were suggested to me before I even had the ability to play music.
John Frusciante
Lose yourself in the far off worlds that are right under your feet. Switch below with above all the way up into infinity. We should be thankful who we are, whether we know ourselves or not.
John Frusciante
What I do on my solo stuff is just the most natural version of who I am, and I’m trying to represent the feelings that I’m feeling as purely as possible
John Frusciante
I've been in pain hope it doesn't show I've been insane well the time is slow
John Frusciante
We’re really lucky to live in a planet that has so much music. We could be living in some bland planet that had no music, no movies, no books, just a bunch of people going around having jobs and things like that. To me that would be a really miserable place, you know, to me music is what makes this world a really fun place to be, you know?
John Frusciante
Artistic expression, sex, and truth are the only things that really matter.
John Frusciante
You just never know when somebodys gonna die. It could happen at any moment so youve got to really treat everybody that way. Just really let everybody know how you feel about them.
John Frusciante
Music is my life. The things that people do don't seem interesting to me at all - going out to bars, carrying on, going to parties. What the hell do people do? Shop? Play golf? Have vacations? That doesn't seem interesting to me. To me, my job as a musician is to be a good receptor. A lot of music comes through me.
John Frusciante
When the intellectual part of guitar playing overrides the spiritual, you don't get to extreme heights.
John Frusciante
The imagination is the most real world that we know because we each know it first hand.
John Frusciante
I think an analogue synth is an extension of the natural world.
John Frusciante
Mainly, I don't like it when music is made solely to impress people or in order to please business people it doesn't sound good to me. If you're making music in order to become famous or loved by the masses that's not what I'm about. When somebody's making music for the wrong reasons, I hear it right away.
John Frusciante
For me, living and making music, they're one thing. It's not like a job that I go to a studio to do, or a chore that I have to get myself in the mood to do, or something. It's the thing that I need to do every day.
John Frusciante
Pot put me in a position where I could walk far away from my playing and hear it in the second person. It helped me step away from myself. I stopped seeing the guitar as a thing I'm holding in my hands and started seeing it as a thing that's at one with outer space and nothingness.
John Frusciante
I'm not interested in forcing my music on people, and that's what the whole music industry nowadays is based on is forcing stations to play it, forcing people to listen to it.
John Frusciante
Right now my taste is going more for things that are organic where the people are using all the sonic possibilities in interesting ways.
