When an artist, or whomever, moves from their scene to the bigger pond, it starts getting crazy, because all of a sudden people don't respect you, and you have to start being a lot more aggressive than you would normally be.

More quotes by Grimes
I think the internet is kind of redefining what it is to be a teenager. Because there's a lot of media that's aimed at teenagers that other people are getting into. But, conversely, pornography or stuff that's intended for adults is completely readily available to anyone, like teenagers.

I can tell really early on in a painting if I'm going to toss it or not.
Grimes
I can't censor myself it's really important for me to say how I feel.
Grimes
I don't own anything designer.
Grimes
I'm so sick of my own music that I don't know if I can edit another video, which involves hundreds of hours of listening to your own song again and again and again. It becomes so grating after a while.
Grimes
I want to make Grimes a high-fashion sci-fi act.
Grimes
I grew up with four brothers, and in the back of my head I feel pretty masculine. It's always funny when I hear recordings of my voice, because it's so deep when I hear it in my head.
Grimes
Art gives me an outlet where I can be aggressive in a world where I usually can't be.
Grimes
I'm just very obsessed with Japanese stuff in general.
Grimes
My great fear is that I'm the ultimate shallow person. I think about this kind of thing a lot, and about this phenomenon in our culture where people identify themselves with their interests. I've been trying not to think about it too much. It used to really upset me when people called me witch house.
Grimes
I was raised in a Catholic household and went to a Catholic school, and my childhood brain perceived medieval Catholicism as an action movie: There's this crazy omnipresent guy who can destroy you at any moment.
Grimes
Removing all stimulation around you is a really positive thing in terms of stimulating your creativity.
Grimes
If I think about what other people are thinking when I'm making music, I just can't do it. It's too withheld - I need to go totally over the top, and then kind of clean it up a bit and make it more reasonable after the fact.
Grimes
If you tell someone you're doing something innovative, they'll think you're doing something innovative.
Grimes
Sometimes you find people who are magnetic, but once they get in front of a camera, they freak out and get weird.
Grimes
I always wanted to be really experimental.
Grimes
I don't think I know anyone who has a steady job in Montreal.
Grimes
I don't even wear shoes with heels because I hate making a noise when I walk and people looking at me.
Grimes
Lately I've been really into screaming a lot through delay [effects], having seven people on stage topless going crazy, stuff like that. Really in your face, but maybe more organic than choreographed dance moves.
Grimes
Ugly girls generally don't become successful in music. And it sucks because it's a standard that just exists.
