“I believe that marriage isn’t between a man and woman; but between love and love.”

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.

I enjoy singing my songs in front of people. I enjoy being involved in making the artwork for albums and stupid stuff like that.

As a writer, as a creator, I’m giving you my experiences. But just take what I give you. You ain’t got to pry beyond that.

I like the anonymity that directors can have about their films.

You just do what you can and you have as much fun as possible.

Once I catch you in one lie, it makes me question everything you said.

You can’t think; you just gotta do things.

Go for someone who is proud to have you.

Work hard in silence, let success be your noise.

Work hard in silence, let success be your noise.

If it brings me to my knees, it’s a bad religion.

It’s not essential for me to have a big debut week; it’s not essential for me to have big radio records.

I don’t fear anybody at all.

I’ve gotten used to being Frank Ocean.

I’m about being the best.

It’s not always easy to be transparent about your emotions and sometimes the music can get heavy.

Nowhere in the Bible, however, do we find God distinguishing between levels of sin. God doesn’t share our rating system. To him, all sin is equally evil, and all sinners are equally lovable.

I love fashion – I really feel it’s where I belong.

What’s the end game? Well, when hate is your agenda, and my own is but love, then this game is not one in which you feature, and my end, is a far-flung world from yours.

An authentically powered person lives in love. Love is the energy of the soul. Love is what heals the personality. There is nothing that cannot be healed by love. There is nothing but love.

A miracle is a shift in perception from fear to love-from a belief in what is not real, to faith in that which is. That shift in perception changes everything.

I give myself the green light to move forward, and to joyously embrace the new.

I don’t have to come up with a ha-ha belly laugh every day, but drawings with warmth and love or ones that put a lump in the throat. That’s more important to me than a laugh.

I love seeing people come out of darkness.
