Dave Navarro Quotations

Men are much more agressive with their advances.

For me, it doesn't matter how difficult something is, it doesn't matter how impressive it is, it's what sounds best that really counts.

There have been times when I felt suicidal and I would stop my head from going in that direction of negativity because I thought there'd be something I'd miss that was funny in the future. If there's a chance I'm going to laugh tomorrow then want to live to experience that.

Jane's Addiction has only put out new music when our hearts were in and when we had something to say creatively.

It's impossible to compare two bands. It would be like comparing two lovers.

I'm either shooting nine grams of coke a day or spending two hours at the gym. There's no middle ground.

I have never been sexually aroused by a man. But I have yet to kiss Johnny Depp, so you never know.

So as long as I can do the music or create, I'll feel fine.

And I've also come to the conclusion that, as far as guitar solos and things like that are concerned, it's more important to complement the music rather than take away from it.

I've always recorded the same way. I put down as many ideas as I have, then strip them away at the mixdown. It's better to have too much music than not enough.

Guitar playing is just something that came to me and is really second nature now.

I've done a lot of talk shows where you can tell that the host is just thinking about what he wants to say next while you're answering him and that's really uncomfortable.

I'm not the type of player to sit home and practice scales and work on runs.

As a viewer of television if there's something I don't like or find offensive, I just don't watch it.

I wish I was a shredder that could play everything, but I don't have the patience.

I'm as obsessive with health as I was with destruction.

I'm thrilled I have the opportunity to do the 'Spread' show and have the terrific sponsors that we work with like Nikon or Verizon.

Yeah, I can read music and I know the names of chords.

We're going to have the hottest chicks in Hollywood here,

Chad Michael Ward is a master of the storytelling craft. His imagery, both still and moving, reaches deep into the darkest corners of the mind, combining the macabre and the sensuous Revealing humanity's secret daydream atrocities. CMW taps into our most excitable of emotions with a blend of fear and human sexuality. Like an erotic car accident we can not look away from.

My God! So sad to hear about Amy Winehouse! My deepest condolences to her friends and family and fans. You will be missed Amy xoxox

I've always been a fan of music where you can hear new things each time you listen.

I never have a realistic sense of self. I either think everything I do is terrible and I'm the worst guy on the planet, or from time to time I'll think I'm the greatest gift to music and the coolest guy who ever lived, but that happens maybe an hour out of the week. Some days I'm more concerned with how my hair looks than what my guitar sounds like.

There is no love left in your eyes, there is no love between your thighs.

I grew up listening to albums by Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix, and they all worked on that multi-layered level.

My skin is my canvas. The artwork on it represents something that is very powerful and meaningful in my life. I look at my skin as something of a living diary because all my tattoos represent a time in my life. And I never wish to shut the door on the past, so I carry it all with me.

I think if there's a vacancy like that, hopefully it will make bands get more creative, and turn up, as they did in the old days, in empty warehouses and just impromptu showcases that are word-of-mouth and flyer-oriented. Hopefully it can be a good thing. But I'll miss that place.

We hope that even a thief has a heart.

When a new person comes in, you can't help but evolve. Steve comes from a singer/songwriter background, whereas Perkins and I come from more of a jamming and experimental background, and I think what we came up with is a great combination of songs and musicianship.

We like to think that we are stronger than our compulsions. But when time after time we can't break a habit we so badly want to eliminate, we begin to realize that maybe our will power and self control aren't as strong as we thought they were. Maybe we are just as weak as everybody else.

Everyone's stunned when they see me all done up in some kind of costume, but they never ask what i'm hiding...I'm not creating a person that I'm not. I'm just amplifying a part of me.

During overdubs, I'd pick up whatever looked interesting at the moment or whichever guitar I hadn't played yet. I like having such a broad palette to dip into.

This is a place where stars can feel like freaks, and freaks can feel like stars. I want to put stripper poles in here for public use so if any girl wants to get up and dance, she can.

The beautiful thing about CBGB is that I don't have a single memory from that place, ... But I think it was amazing.

I mean the truck can get replaced. But our little family member, it's like having a child. You don't get that back.

If there was a channel that showed nothing but hysteria and panic, it would be the highest-rated channel on TV. We like to think of creating music as a way to channel the panic into something tangible.
