Grace Jones
I don't think 'pop' should mean that you had no talent.
Grace Jones
Whatever bling always has something to hide.
Grace Jones
There will always be a replacement coming along very soon - a newer version, a crazier version, a louder version. So if you haven’t got a long-term plan, then you are merely a passing phase, the latest trend, yesterday’s event.
Grace Jones
This is depression, it comes when your blocking. This is expression it comes when you're rocking

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
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 don't like people who hide things.

Prescription drugs can be even worse than illegal drugs. The only difference is the legality.
Grace Jones
To be honest, my life is not really as way-out and myth-loaded as people like to portray it.
