More quotes by Ariel Pink
I love everybody. You have to embrace all facets of humanity love and accept everyone as being part of yourself.
Ariel Pink
Confidence was never in short supply in my case. If anything, I think I overshot the mark with confidence way too early in my career, and gradually, it's about just getting more humble and wanting to sit down more.
Ariel Pink
You marry your friends when you stay with your friends. It's hard enough to find a good roommate, let alone a good person you can live with and fall in love with at the same time. You might as well just take your roommate, if you can find one, and marry them. I mean, if you can find somebody that doesn't drive you crazy, I would say marry that.
Ariel Pink
I always wanted to get into rock music so I could cover up my real personality, change my voice, and create a false self to hide behind.
Ariel Pink
I think about music in the way that I heard music as a kid - like, Oh my god, there's this weird rubbery ball of undulating things.
Ariel Pink
I remember being very psyched for our first tours, despite not knowing about the endless stream of situations and setbacks that we'd face.
Ariel Pink
I tried to just do things like make some money, be responsible, help out other artists who I see have had a similar path.
Ariel Pink
I always want to be a member in the audience, and I want to hear it from their point of view and see it from their point of view so I can know if it's good. But that's just my issues, not a real problem.
Ariel Pink
I was definitely a thespian of sorts in elementary school. I went to a real small private school and every year I participated in the talent shows and the school plays, all of 'em.
Ariel Pink
I always want to do something that just sort of fits the mood. It's supposed to help the song, it's not supposed to take away from the song or re-contextualize it. I always feel like the less you make it a conceptual territorial debut, the better.
Ariel Pink
At 35, I'm thinking, Oh, I don't have any of that initial inspiration that I had before, all that angst. I always thought I would burn out very quickly.
Ariel Pink
During those formative times, I really didn't know what was going on, and I was sort of torn in a thousand different directions with how I felt about what I was doing.
Ariel Pink
From day one, I was already famous in my own head. It didn't take anything to make me feel that way. I know I'm totally not famous. I mean, it just depends on your perspective.
Ariel Pink
I love having the impulsivity to change course. I think it's key to keeping things fresh.
Ariel Pink
I look suspicious if I dress in sort of benign clothes, going to the airport.
Ariel Pink
I'm a product of my environment.
Ariel Pink
I do enjoy my solo time ... I want to stay home and do soundtracks and watch TV in my underwear with a keyboard on my lap and just be a couch potato.
Ariel Pink
That's really what keeps me playing live - appreciation. And I guess I've made a lot of wiggle room for myself to try different things and discover what I'm doing, and the audience accepts it.
Ariel Pink
Funnily enough, I feel the most free to be myself when I'm not doing my solo project. Whenever I'm in a situation when it's a side thing or it's something not so infused with my ego. When I'm all over everything, it's a big responsibility and half the time leaves me in some weird nether state of insecurity and doubt.
Ariel Pink
Everything comes with hard work. You never get to stop working. I don't see myself ever getting comfortable enough to not have to worry about working.
Ariel Pink
