More quotes by Mick Jagger
I don't really mind criticism in music or in shows and stuff like that at all. I mean, it doesn't really worry me even if it's like out of place. At least it's relevant.
Mick Jagger
Rock & roll mostly is a very butch thing, and it appeals to one hard side of the masculine character. But I don't think the Rolling Stones are only a rock band. They can be other things. They can be very feminine.
Mick Jagger
When you write songs, you have to like them yourself first, but then you have to make everyone else like them, because you can force them to play it, but you can't force them to like it.
Mick Jagger
I don't spend money on anything. I don't collect anything. I don't spend it on furniture.
Mick Jagger
I must be careful not to get trapped in the past. That's why I tend to forget my songs.
Mick Jagger
I don't believe in original melodies. There are only so many computations of eight notes.
Mick Jagger
No matter what Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious do, they can't be more disgusting than The Rolling Stones are in an orgy of biting.
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
The Spice Girl Victoria Beckham has just published the story of her life. I confess that it is not in my reading table.
Mick Jagger
It's not selling out, it is called making lots of money.
Mick Jagger
Always as a musician you must have one thing you do well.
Mick Jagger
There's no absolutes in life - only vodka.
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
It's all right letting yourself go, as long as you can get yourself back.
Mick Jagger
I don't think there's anything wrong with having sex, you know. At any age.
Mick Jagger
When you start a new project, no matter if it's a movie like Enigma or an album like Goddess, you are always learning something. While I search, I find something new.
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
Killing for ideas is the most dangerous form of killing at all. Being willing to die for your ideas rather than your country is another concept, but dying for an idea, like in religion, is absurd.
Mick Jagger
No one, but no one, is equal, or ever will be. Elvis was and is supreme.
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
