Here are some of John’s quotes. Please, note that it does not include songs’ words, they can be found on specific albums’ pages in discography section. If there’s a nice quote you’d like to see here, please contact me. In fact, help would be appreciated, as I don’t have much time for this page!

“It’s like I’m in the 4th dimension and somebody’s asking me to describe it and that’s what the 4th dimension is about. There’s no words,no symbols, no images it’s all pure real energy and vibrations.”

“To make the album without the experience in my life would be impossible. It’s only because I’ve gone so deep inside myself and faced so many things that by nature I should be scared of. You know, being in a room and sitting there with a ghost, hearing their voice in your head and seeing them as clearly as I’m seeing you right now.”

“Most of my supernatural experiences are in the past. It’s a world I don’t really delve into that much anymore. But I believe that there are things we don’t see with our eyes that are making every moment what it is. And every person is made up of a bunch of people. And everybody who’s alive is everybody who died. I just think it’s all one big energy working together. I see the world as being very balanced-completely, perfectly balanced.”

“To me music is the centre of the universe and the voice of the spirits and the voice of God and the voice of all the people who have lived and died…At least the ones I’m connected to.”

“1. Artistic expression, sex, and truth are the only things that really matter.
2.Music is the face of God.
3. The best service you can do for mankind is mind your own business.
4. Don’t ever trust a man who says ‘I am going to kill you in the name of God’ .”

“All I know is that the six months when I recorded this music was the most productive time of my life, and I’ll always remember it as the first time in my life that I ever felt like I was one with my dreams.”

“Once I write the song I believe that it creates a new atmosphere in a place called the fifth dimension where it creates new life and energy and it makes things better and it makes new places to live for the spirits who frequent these places.”

“There’s a big place I’m connected to when I write. As long as I have the feeling inside me that I’m connected to this huge, peaceful, beautiful place, no matter what I write, if it’s in conjunction with that place, it’s always gonna have meaning. It’s not really necessary to truly understand what I write, as long as I’ve got that feeling behind me.”

“Music isn’t the Olympics.”

“The point is, I’m weird, but I never felt weird.”

“I can also be very happy in this life, but it’s usually happiness that I get from other lives I’ve lived and other dimensions. This life is hardly important to me. It’s very small compared to the importance that I think the fourth and fifth dimension have. Those places are much more real to me, like when you have a dream and it’s more real to you than real life. Compared to where I’ll be going, this life seems like a dream that just feels like a dream.”

“I used to always see things in the outside world as being ‘the enemies of an artist’. I don’t see it that way anymore. To me, everything an artist needs is inside of himself, and it really doesn’t matter what’s going on in the world. Nothing else matters. You don’t need to have things perfect, you don’t need to have a lot of money or a beautiful girl. If your job in life is to create, you can find inside yourself what you need to make beautiful art and beautiful music. But you might have to clean yourself out, spiritually or physically. You gotta constantly purify yourself, living in the city, around human beings. There might be people close to you who affect you inside yourself in such a corrupt way that it screws with your ability to do what you do. But if you make sure that the people who are close you are good people who are there for you and love you, you can create your temple everywhere you go.”

“I think my songs exist before I write them, in a place called the fourth dimension where sounds and shapes and colours are the land. They’re the air and the grass and the wood and they’re all these feelings. When a collection of those feelings is put into my head, because I’m tuned into that place, I have the skill technically to turn it into a song.”

“Music is not something that you are in control of. It comes from somewhere else. If you’re that middleman between the cosmos and the real world on Earth that hte music comes through, you are very lucky. When you record music, it’s not your job to try to control anything. It’s more about being in the right place and flowing with the energies that are in the air around you and with the people that you are making the music with. The second that someone thinks music comes from themselves, and that they are the ones responsible for it, is when they go off track. The most important thing you could ralize is that you are the least important part of the whole process. Music is going to be made whether any one artist is here or not. If John Lennon or Jimi Hendrix had disappeared, music still would have gone on, changed, grown, and been the beautiful thing that it is. You take away the music, all you have are the individuals, and they don’t mean anything. The individual is nothing, it’s the music that’s in the air all the time that’s important, and you have to be humble in the face of that.”

“What I have to say to an inhabitant of the Earth in one hundred years is similar to what I have to say to the present inhabitants of Earth. To be creative.”
