More quotes by Grace Jones
This is depression, it comes when your blocking. This is expression it comes when you're rocking
Grace Jones
Disco was like the celebration of music through dance and my God! When you heard the music sometimes it was like, if you don't get up and dance, you aren't human!
Grace Jones
I think I'm doing a service to black women by portraying myself as a sex machine. I mean, what's wrong with being a sex machine, darling? Sex is large, sex is life, sex is as large as life, so it appeals to anyone that's living, or rather it should.
Grace Jones
When I started modelling, I'd raise my arms and it was all muscle and all the other models had nothing. Really, everybody thought I was a man. I don't have to do much to have muscles. It's just genetic.
Grace Jones
My dad's family were political and he was always a theatrical creature, whereas my mum is really musical and her father was the touring pianist with Nat King Cole. My family was an explosive mixture of politics, religion and music - no wonder I turned out how I did.
Grace Jones
I like to think of myself as a positive person. Otherwise I wouldn't have had a child.
Grace Jones
I thought I'd take style to its limit... My philosophy is a belief in magic, good luck , self-confidence, and pride.
Grace Jones
I was the only black girl at my junior high school. I had an afro, a Jamaican accent, I looked really old.
Grace Jones
I always thought that feminine, softer side was just too vulnerable to put out there, because then it's like you're opening up a door for everybody to come in, and you don't know who's going to come in that door.
Grace Jones
When I was modelling, I spent half my life staring at thousands of perfect reflections. It got to a stage where I was losing all sense of reality - so after I quit modelling, I took all the mirrors out of my house.
Grace Jones
It doesn't surprise me that people can't see beyond my image. It's amazing, but I can understand it. That's what image is for. But it's never a problem for me. It's only a problem for them. I don't really care. I do what I want regardless.
Grace Jones
Forget health clinics and gyms. Sex is the best cure. One good night of sex and your problems are gone.
Grace Jones
I like dressing like a guy. I love it. When I was modeling I used to do pictures where I would dress up like my little brother. No makeup and I looked like a boy.
Grace Jones
I have just as much woman in me as I have man. It's just a matter of channeling the energy into which way you use it.
Grace Jones
My mother was a champion high-jumper. My three brothers are basketball players. We've all been very athletic.
Grace Jones
To be honest, my life is not really as way-out and myth-loaded as people like to portray it.
Grace Jones
I'm not a rock star, I'm a soft person.
Grace Jones
Growing up in Jamaica, the Pentecostal church wasn't that fiery thing you might think. It was very British, very proper. Hymns. No dancing. Very quiet. Very fundamental.
Grace Jones
When you become such a strong personality in music, it's hard for people to accept you as a different character.
Grace Jones
I came from a very strict background, and didn't hear any Jamaican music when I was growing up.
