Ariel Pink
For me, self-gratification eventually took a backseat to trying to do something collaborative with other people, to trying to make something new.
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.
