Craft Notes
Grace Jones on Writing
“God I’m scary. I’m scaring myself.”
“Models are there to look like mannequins, not like real people. Art and illusion are supposed to be fantasy.”
“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.”
“I also think that men need to be penetrated.”
“Now when I enter a carriage, it almost empties. But there’s always one brave enough to stay.”
“I’VE LOOKED THE DEVIL IN THE FACE, AND GOD, AND SOMEHOW I’VE FOUND A BALANCE. BUT BEING EXTREME IS AT THE SAME TIME A BALANCE – ONE EXTREME BALANCES THE OTHER”
“As a model one is forced to spend a lot of time in front of the mirror and I just started to freak out, like I was going on the other side of the mirror. So I moved every mirror out of my house when I stopped modeling.”
“A legend is someone who has died.”
On Lady Gaga being a copycat: “I really don’t think of her at all. I go about my business.”
“I get bored. I provoke things to happen without even realizing it. I just follow my instincts. I don’t think about it, really.”
“Without daaaancing, it’s a business meeting.”
“Use, don’t abuse.”
On gibberish: “It’s not a made-up language. It relates to everyone… Only the people who are in it.”
“If you take it just for partying, that’s when it goes pear-shaped.”
