More quotes by Mick Jagger
I can't get no satisfaction.
Mick Jagger
I never really studied business in school. I kind of wish I had, but how boring is that?
Mick Jagger
They're so boring. They're so pathetic, all those journalists. Most of them are. Most of those kind that write gossip stuff, and most of it's gossip. Things are just invented about your personal life and you just have to take that. It's bullshit. People believe it, though. They just believe everything they read.
Mick Jagger
Always as a musician you must have one thing you do well.
Mick Jagger
I came into music just because I wanted the bread. It's true. I looked around and this seemed like the only way I was going to get the kind of bread I wanted.
Mick Jagger
Quite often when I record a song, writing it and making a demo is the big thing and, after that, I think, how do I actually translate this into real life? A lot of the time I think I can't be bothered.
Mick Jagger
Boys were a very essential part of rock & roll. The girls were more onlookers.
Mick Jagger
I don't believe in astrology. It's a lot of crap. I just think that's another thing you should throw out the window. Mysticism. Cheap. It's amazing that people still hang on to that after all these years.
Mick Jagger
There's hundreds of different ways of writing songs.
Mick Jagger
In England you're skewered on the altar of pop culture if you become pretentious.
Mick Jagger
I don't find it easy dealing with people with drug problems. It helps if you're all taking drugs, all the same drugs.
Mick Jagger
When we heard we were topping the bill over James Brown we couldn't believe it. We tried for two days to get it changed round - I mean you can't follow an act like that.
Mick Jagger
It's a real buzz, even in front of 20 people, to make a complete fool of yourself. But people seemed to like it. And the thing is, if people started throwing tomatoes at me, I wouldn't have gone on with it.
Mick Jagger
It's not selling out, it is called making lots of money.
Mick Jagger
You start out playing rock 'n' roll so you can have sex and do drugs, but you end up doing drugs so you can still play rock 'n' roll and have sex.
Mick Jagger
Most people in England don't live in the North, and people are snobby in England, so they wanted a band from the South.
Mick Jagger
I am not very conscious of the figures of speech that I use.
Mick Jagger
People have this obsession. They want you to be like you were in 1969. They want you to, because otherwise their youth goes with you. It's very selfish, but it's understandable.
Mick Jagger
Samba rhythm is a great one to sing on, but it's also got some other suggestions in it, an undercurrent of being primitive - because it is a primitive African, South American, Afro-whatever-you-call-that rhythm. So to white people, it has a very sinister thing about it.
Mick Jagger
People have different personalities when they're drunk or take heroin, or whatever drugs.
