More quotes by 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
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
Lets drink to the hard working people Lets drink to the salt of the earth
Mick Jagger
I don't spend money on anything. I don't collect anything. I don't spend it on furniture.
Mick Jagger
I prefer to live in a rented house. No ties. Nothing around my neck. Just the minimum kind of bare comforts of home.
Mick Jagger
The only performance that makes it, that really makes it, that makes it all the way, is the one that achieves madness.
Mick Jagger
People also like partnerships because they can identify with the drama of two people in partnership. They can feed off a partnership, and that keeps people entertained. Besides, if you have a successful partnership, it's self-sustaining.

That's one of the good things about a lot of the young British bands, they are mixing all styles of music. I think that's very good because that's very now.
Mick Jagger
I didn't want to make teenage comedies, and I didn't want to make really trashy films. I wanted to make films that were a bit challenging.
Mick Jagger
I love country music, but I find it very hard to take it seriously. I also think a lot of country music is sung with the tongue in cheek, so I do it tongue in cheek.
Mick Jagger
I don't want to be a rock star all my life. I couldn't bear to end up like Elvis Presley in Las Vegas with all those housewives and old ladies coming in with their handbags.
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
I, personally, have a lot of energy, so I don't see it as an immediate problem.
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 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
You have to realize that everyone in a band is all more or less together, and everyone has their own niche, and some people lead in some ways, and some people lead in others.
Mick Jagger
The new fashion is to talk about the most private parts of your life other fashion is to repent of your excesses and to criticize the drugs that made you happy in the other times.
Mick Jagger
Patriotism is an instant reaction that fades away when the war starts.
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
In England you're skewered on the altar of pop culture if you become pretentious.
