I need people to call me, I never remember to call anyone - otherwise I'll just sit in my house and listen to music all day.

I am very happy to be alive. There is much fun to be had. Music, movies, books, paintings, drawingsI hope you have these things where you are. If you have them, what does the real world matter anyway?

In the Chili Peppers I'm a part of that world in a pretty big world and that's just the way it is.

I never feel like I'm running out of ideas, because it is clear to me - music is infinite

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

That's what I spend most of my time doing, breathing a lot. I like air.

So when I feel the spirit upon me it's something I don't take it for granted, and I don't think I'm solely responsible for these things.
