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.

More quotes by Mick Jagger
Lose your dreams and you might lose your mind.
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
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
The grown-up world was a very ordered society in the early '60s, and I was coming out of it. America was even more ordered than anywhere else. I found it was a very restrictive society in thought and behavior and dress.
Mick Jagger
People think they know you. They know the things about you that you have forgotten.
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
As long as my face is on page one, I don't care what they say about me on page seventeen.
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
Drug use makes you snappy, and you get very bad-tempered and have terrible hangovers.
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
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
Americans shocked me by their behavior and their narrow-mindedness.
Mick Jagger
A good thing never ends.
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
I really don't see myself being apart from music. I like doing lots of different things. I've been involved in film for quite a long time and I just like doing film.
Mick Jagger
People have different personalities when they're drunk or take heroin, or whatever drugs.
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
I didn't have any inhibitions. I saw Elvis and Gene Vincent, and I thought, Well, I can do this. And I liked doing it.
Mick Jagger
No one, but no one, is equal, or ever will be. Elvis was and is supreme.
Mick Jagger
If you're the singer in the band, you always get more attention than anyone else.
