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
The imagination is the most real world that we know because we each know it first hand.
John Frusciante

John Frusciante
Anybody who's a guitar player that's spent that time with another guitar player, there's nothing better than that.
John Frusciante
But I think I know just as many creative people who've never taken drugs in their life as I do who have taken a lot of drugs.
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
A slave in the fields one night He's running along Gets far enough to be a free man And he's feeling so strong

What's gone will never come back, but it exists when you think of it.
