More quotes by Mick Jagger
Boys were a very essential part of rock & roll. The girls were more onlookers.

Mick Jagger
Anarchy is the only slight glimmer of hope.
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.
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

Mick Jagger
Lets drink to the hard working people Lets drink to the salt of the earth
Mick Jagger

Mick Jagger
Everyone knows what their roots are, but you've got to explore everywhere. You've got to explore the sky too.
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
I don't think that being in a full-time relationship is necessarily for everybody all of the time. It's not necessarily some state of grace.
Mick Jagger
Thousands of years people have taken drugs, whether it's alcohol, which was invented about 5,000 years ago. People have been using that. And all kinds of marijuana and all these things, tobacco. So all these drugs have been - it seems to be the propensity of human beings to want to use them.
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 okay to let yourself go, just as long as you let yourself back.
