Ariel Pink
I have a strong impulse to protect history and time and the lineage of events.
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
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

I love everybody. You have to embrace all facets of humanity love and accept everyone as being part of yourself.

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

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
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
I love having the impulsivity to change course. I think it's key to keeping things fresh.
Ariel Pink
Talk about a struggling artist having to work against enormous odds ... But I love movies so much, so I'm going to do it.
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
The first half of high school, I had a girlfriend, and then the second half I got to know these guys who would just get stoned and jam. I had struck the goth thing by then, but I still thought of myself as Ian Curtis or something.
Ariel Pink
The universe is expanding, and every second that you're alive, the universe is bigger than it was a second before. There's nothing in front of us, exactly, other than the future, and there's no space for the size, the density of the universe to go. Because it's expanding at every point simultaneously.
Ariel Pink
The ideal is to live forever, right? Or to live right now and just be grateful that I feel good. I'm definitely grateful for every second that I'm alive. At this point in my life, I definitely take time out throughout the day to just stop and be like, Everything is cool. It's as good as it's gonna be, because it only gets worse.
Ariel Pink
