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.

More quotes by Frank Ocean
It's cool to be recognised by your peers.
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
We were poor. But my mom never accepted that. She worked hard to become a residential contractor - got her master's with honors at the University of New Orleans. I used to go to every class with her. Her father was my paternal figure.
Frank Ocean
I don't fear anybody... at all.
Frank Ocean
I don't know anything and neither do you.
Frank Ocean
You just do what you can and you have as much fun as possible.
Frank Ocean
You can't think. You just have to do things.
Frank Ocean
If it brings me to my knees, it's a bad religion
Frank Ocean
I booked my first studio at like 12 or 13. Somewhere in that season of my life, singing along with the radio became me wanting to be on radio, you know.
Frank Ocean
It's not always easy to be transparent about your emotions and sometimes the music can get heavy.
Frank Ocean
I don't intend to stop making music.
Frank Ocean
I play piano every day. I enjoy that.
Frank Ocean
I don't have any secrets I need kept any more.
Frank Ocean
Just remember someone loves everything you hate about yourself.
Frank Ocean
Whenever I think about movies, I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film, you have a musical element to it, not just on the scoring, but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time.
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
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
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
