More quotes by Frank Ocean
A friend of mine jokes that I have a painstaking royalty complex. Like maybe I was a duke in a past life.
Frank Ocean
I enjoy singing my songs in front of people. I enjoy being involved in making the artwork for albums and stupid stuff like that.
Frank Ocean
With my art, it's the one thing that I know will outlive me and outlive my feelings. It will outlive my depressive seasons.
Frank Ocean
People are just afraid of things too much … Sure, evil exists, extremism exists. Somebody could commit a hate crime and hurt me. But they could do the same just because I'm black. They could do the same just because I'm American.
Frank Ocean
I don't ever want to be caught up in a system of thinking I can do one thing 'cos that's just... that's just telling yourself a lie.
Frank Ocean
In art, at a certain level, there is no 'better than.' It's just about trying to operate for yourself on the most supreme level, artistically, that you can and hoping that people get it. Trusting that, just because of the way people are built and how interconnected we are, greatness will translate and symmetry will be recognised.
Frank Ocean
I don't fear anybody... at all.
Frank Ocean
We all know we have a finite period of time. I just feel if I'm going to be alive, I want to be challenged - to be as immortal as possible. The path to that isn't an easy way, but it's a rewarding way.
Frank Ocean
Of course awards matter.
Frank Ocean
When you're happy you enjoy the music, but when you're sad you understand the lyrics.
Frank Ocean
I might just write a novel next. I don't know!
Frank Ocean
If someone breaks your heart, just punch them in the face. Seriously. Punch them in the face and go get some ice cream.
Frank Ocean
Don't confuse my personality with my attitude. My personality is who I am, and my attitude depends on who you are.
Frank Ocean
Those who are heartless, once cared too much.
Frank Ocean
I know that we sin but I do believe we try, we all try.
Frank Ocean
Some people focus more on sonics. Some people focus more on story. I focus on both sonics and story, but music sometimes, just music itself, can turn into more of a maths problem. I guess everything in life is a math problem, but it can be more about an empirical route to getting the symmetry that you want, and this vibe, sonically.
Frank Ocean
I don't have any secrets I need kept any more.
Frank Ocean
As a man I am not a killer. I’m an artist and a modern person. I’ll choose sanity.
Frank Ocean
I don't know if I ever told you this before, but you're the only one I ever waited for this long.
Frank Ocean
The work is the work. The work is not me. I like the anonymity that directors can have about their films. Even though it's my voice, I'm a storyteller.
