I feel like I'd like to continue putting out records and start putting them out more rapidly than I have until now and for me if I can keep selling the records to the fans that already like me that's fine.

I find that the best way to do things is to constantly move forward and to never doubt anything and keep moving forward, if you make a mistake say you made a mistake.

But I have been avoiding talking about what I'm doing now because it's frustrating for people to hear about things that aren't available yet.

My music, my whole approach to the synthesizer has completely changed now.

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

For me it's important to be in balance. To not let fear get in the way of things, to not worry so much about protecting yourself all the time.

In music you have people exposing this very vulnerable part of themselves, and you also have the lifestyle is so fast that oftentimes people search for whatever the easiest way to feel relaxed in the midst of all of it, or the easiest way to have energy.

I think the feelings in my music were suggested to me before I even had the ability to play music.

Something like trying to protect yourself all the time, things like trying to outwit fate. Those things can be the worst thing you can do for yourself.

I try to put the same spirit into that that I put into any other music endeavor I'm involved in.

And this whole period of time of gradually working at being a better guitar player and songwriter have gradually led me to the point where I feel I'm doing a clearer representation of the thing that I've been feeling inside me since I was four years old.

You just never know when somebody's gonna die. It could happen at any moment so you've got to really treat everybody that way. Just really let everybody know how you feel about them.

Yeah, I really like being alive. But I definitely don't have any intentions as an artist.

I feel like I'd like to continue putting out records and start putting them out more rapidly than I have until now and for me if I can keep selling the records to the fans that already like me that's fine.

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.

The main thing experience has taught me is that one has to sort of hone their relationship to time, you know.

As far as my solo record, I don't want a gold record or anything, I'm happy to be small and to have the people appreciate the music who really like me for being me.

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.

I just feel like the songs that come out are the songs that come.

Everything's very perfectly balanced; for all the horrible things in the world there's lots of good things.

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.

For me my friendship with Omar Rodriguez from Mars Volta that friendship really means a lot to me because he's another creative person who works as hard as I do.

I don't want to be on the radio. I don't want to be on Mtv.

Any guitar solo should reflect the music that it's soloing over and not just be existing in its own sort of little world.

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.

For me, theory has always opened things up to where I can walk into a room and just by hearing something I know exactly where to go on the guitar. I have a better time playing because I have a variety of colors to bring to the table.

I consider my music to be Progressive Synth Pop, which says nothing about what it sounds like, but does describe my basic approach.

I think a solo moves forward the way a song does, because it's reflective of the chords that I'm considering as I'm soloing, and at the same time I'm going as much out on a limb as Frank Zappa used to, in terms of just going crazy on the instrument.

I'm not interested in meeting people's expectations, and I'm not interested in pleasing people.

Rock guitarists usually do not wish to think trains of thought about anything but their own guitar playing during a long solo, and I could not play this way if I were not able to divide my attention between my ever changing musical environment and my instrument itself.

Rock music is electronic music, dependent entirely on electronic circuitry and amplification.

So I use a tape recorder a lot to record ideas.

As long as youre excited about what youre playing and as long as it comes from your heart its going to be great.

Expression is when you are at one with nothingness.

Any guitar solo should reflect the music that its soloing over and not just be existing in its own sort of little world.

All literary men are Red Sox fans - to be a Yankee fan in a literate society is to endanger your life.

I'm getting a wider circle of fans now. More women, more middle class people.

You can't compare a Super Bowl crowd, which tends to be more polite and a little more neutral to that. The Super Bowl only has 7,000 to 8,000 fans for each team.

I want to thank all the fans for their support over the years. Keep supporting the Knicks, we're moving in the right direction here and we will be exciting to watch and competing against the best in the NBA. Come back to the Garden for those exciting games.

I couldn't be happier about being a part of 'Hunger Games' and to play Katniss. I have a huge responsibility to the fans of this incredible book and I don't take it lightly. I will give everything I have to these movies and to this role to make it worthy of Suzanne Collins' masterpiece.

I've had a big heart my whole life; all the Korn fans know that. A lot of people told me that I was different.

I listen to the phone-ins on the way home and I know how the fans feel.

They want to know I'm doing good, the fans do.

The attraction, and my particular participation is in being able to communicate with my fans, answer their questions, get a feel for how they respond to Vader.

Liverpool fans were great to me, I still live near the city and they always come up and shake my hand.

To me it's the best trophy you can win and to bring it back for all them fans that have supported us right through would be something special.

I am so excited to let fans in on how important my relationship with my family is to me. I hope to motivate mothers and daughters to build lifetimes of memories together and inspire kids around the world to live their dreams.

Partly because I get such astonishingly nice fans.

I've spent a lot of time researching the subject and government deception. So to be involved in Star Trek is perfect for me. I enjoy meeting the fans and discussing my interests with them.
