More quotes by 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
What's gone will never come back, but it exists when you think of it.
John Frusciante
I think the feelings in my music were suggested to me before I even had the ability to play music.
John Frusciante
When the intellectual part of guitar playing overrides the spiritual, you don't get to extreme heights.
John Frusciante
People fall into patterns at fast speeds, when really, to have a clear musical thought - the kind of musical thought that makes a melody work - our brains just can't think that fast. At a certain point, you're going on automatic.
John Frusciante

John Frusciante

John Frusciante
I'm dreading the time that is not near As a man on a cross I have no fear I can't believe these words I'm saying You've got to feel your lines
John Frusciante
Artistic expression, sex, and truth are the only things that really matter.
John Frusciante
I would say a lot of the emotion in what I do is a sort of a thankfulness for those energies being around, because there's been points in my life when they weren't around, and it's a real sort of miserable existence.
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
The main thing experience has taught me is that one has to sort of hone their relationship to time, you know.
John Frusciante
Music has always carried me through times of loneliness. So when I make music, I like it to make people who listen to it feel like they have a friend who reveals something personal to them, rather than trying to be like a god up on a pedestal
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
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
Expression is when you are at one with nothingness.
