THREE THOUGHTS FROM GRACE

From The world of Grace Jones

1. MEN ARE TERRIFIED OF ME. I CAN EASILY STEP INTO THE MAN’S SHOE, AND THAT PUTS THE MAN IN A POSITION WHERE HE HAS TO BECOME THE FEMALE. THAT'S WHAT SETS OFF THE TENSION. BUT MY IMAGE IS SUPPOSED TO FRIGHTEN MEN - SO ONLY THE GOOD ONES COME THROUGH.

2. I WASN’T BORN THIS WAY. ONE CREATES ONESELF. I BELIEVE WHATEVER I DREAM. WHATEVER I DREAM, I WANT TO DO.

3. 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.
