When you're using drugs, you're driven by this mystical black energy, a force inside you that just won't quit.

Anthony Kiedis
I know the evil of my ancestors because I am those people. The balance is delicate in the extreme. I know that few of you who read my words have ever thought about your ancestors this way.
