Anthony Kiedis Quotes

I'm always looking for people to feel connected to me and inspired in their own right.

I'm just always making things that are personal but hopefully also inspiring, and share not just my story, but other people's stories.

My main goal in life is to be happy. If I can make other people happy by doing what I love, then I feel like I've done everything in life that I've wanted. I just want to make people feel good and change people's lives with music, and that's it.

Through my life, I do want to inspire others.

I feel that since I was a little, little person, I knew that one of my life goals was to tell stories and bring joy to people.

Sometimes I go, “What am I doing with my life?” But then I get letters from young women, or people come up to me, and they say, “You’ve made such a difference to my confidence.” And that is a good thing. I should read more fan mail though. I’m crap at responding.

To be someone's inspiration is the biggest goal in my life.

You were born with the power to change others. You change people by the way you treat them. That is what changes the human heart.

I want to touch people's lives, and bring them along with me.

In many ways we are a dream for people, not a reality. That counts in your mind. It shows how much you can touch people, and as much as you can try to give those people somehow it is nothing compared to what they live in their own mind, in their dreams, for you.

I've been really fortunate where I've made stuff that connects to people on a positive level, and that makes me feel really good, but I can't feel comfortable in dictating what they're supposed to feel out of it, nor am I a professional in something where I can really help people any farther than creating the things that I make to help myself.

I hope that I can make music that helps people in some way or that they can connect with, and that I can just live a life where I'm surrounded by people that I love.

Tap into people's emotions. We've all been put to sleep by a speaker who just gives the facts. You must tap into people's feelings.

What's gratifying for me and interesting is that people are picking up on exactly what I want them to, which is that this is energizing people, and making them want to make stories.

Writing makes you feel that there is a reason to go on living. If I couldn't write, I would stop breathing.

Passion is what gives meaning to our lives. It's what allows us to achieve success beyond our wildest imagination. Try to find a career path that you have a passion for.

I want to do stories that inspire people.

The NFL is my goal, not my dream. My dream is to have an impact on people.

I hope I inspire people to dream bigger than what they are living, but a dream within their reach.

I've got passion, and for people who don't, I make them see how trite their lives are.

Music is a thing that changes people's lives. It has the capacity to make young people's lives better.

The reason I play music is to touch people - for selfish reasons, as well. It feels good to make someone else feel something, whether it's a kiss, a painting, good idea or it's a song.

I think that's the whole point of music - to inspire people.

I even got letters form kids in hospitals saying the music is what keeps them going, and that really touched my heart.

I want to be inspired, and I want to hopefully do work that moves people as well.
