Frank Ocean Art Quotations

Each individual's success as a solo artist is pretty much a win for the whole team.

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.

With my art, it's the one thing that I know will outlive me and outlive my feelings. It will outlive my depressive seasons.

My grandfather was smart and had a whole lot of pride. He didn't speak a terrible amount, but you could tell there was a ton on his mind - like a quiet acceptance of how life had turned out.

Don't feel sad over someone who gave up on you, feel sorry for them because they gave up on someone who would have never given up on them.

I've always wanted to make a career in the arts, and I think that my only hope at doing that is to make it more about the work.

Being singer/songwriter implies versatility and being able to create more than one medium, and R&B artist is a box, simple as that. It is 'that's what you do, that's what you are', and that's a little unfair, to me, because I don't just do that. So I like singer/songwriter because it allows me to move a little bit more freely.

I enjoy being involved in making the artwork for albums and stupid stuff like that.

If someone breaks your heart, just punch them in the face. Seriously. Punch them in the face and go get some ice cream.

Those who are heartless, once cared too much.

As a man I am not a killer. I’m an artist and a modern person. I’ll choose sanity.

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.
