I look suspicious if I dress in sort of benign clothes, going to the airport.
Ariel Pink
I've kind of gotten more timid. I used to be fearless - at a certain point I didn't care about what anybody thought. I had all the answers and I could have been as bad as I wanted to be. But nowadays I just want to be good and make people happy.
Ariel Pink
