More quotes by Mick Jagger
Rock has to absorb other rhythmic forms, because the underlying rhythm of music changes with fashion, and people like to move differently, and the underlying rhythms have to be the ones that people want to dance to.
Mick Jagger
I think that people taking drugs occasionally are great. I think there's nothing wrong with it. But if you do it the whole time, you don't produce as good things as you could.
Mick Jagger
Lose your dreams and you might lose your mind.
Mick Jagger
Movies in this country, its very complicated, and we could bang on about it forever, but the French movie industry is very different because its very obviously French.
Mick Jagger
You know, being in a rock band, you can't overdo the costume changes too much because everyone thinks, oh, that's not a real rock band. Look how many times he changes costumes. That's not rock. Rock's about going on in a T-shirt and staying in it and getting it all dirty. But that's not really my approach.

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.
Mick Jagger
I think it's very important that you have at least some sort of inner thing you don't talk about. That's why I find it distasteful when all these pop stars talk about their habits.
Mick Jagger
Music should elevate you. You can be raised, or left stranded. You can't be raised all the time, in my experience. This might be a rare moment. You might just go up to that level but that's always good.
Mick Jagger
I don't think there's anything wrong with having sex, you know. At any age.
Mick Jagger
We have recorded songs on the same day that were released years later in other albums.
Mick Jagger
I didn't really like being at college. It wasn't like it was Oxford and had been the most wonderful time of my life. It was really a dull, boring course I was stuck on.
Mick Jagger
I wasn't taking so many drugs that it was messing up my creative processes. It was a very good period, 1968 - there was a good feeling in the air. It was a very creative period for everyone.
Mick Jagger
Boys were a very essential part of rock & roll. The girls were more onlookers.
Mick Jagger
Boys, as far as England was concerned, were always the hard core. And you just know the guys like it. They want to be you. Some might be attracted to you without knowing it.
Mick Jagger
Lets drink to the hard working people Lets drink to the salt of the earth
