John Frusciante
I write songs because I have to write them, and if I didn't I'd be doing some other kind of music that didn't require a song.
John Frusciante
I combine aspects of many styles of music and create my own musical forms by way of electronic instruments.
John Frusciante

John Frusciante
Well, I don't even know how to drive in this life, so I'm pretty far from ever having the life of being a stuntdouble. I liked- I had an Evil Knievel doll when i was a kid, that's about it!
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
