More quotes by Mick Jagger
People think they know you. They know the things about you that you have forgotten.
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
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
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
If you're the singer in the band, you always get more attention than anyone else.
Mick Jagger
I must be careful not to get trapped in the past. That's why I tend to forget my songs.
Mick Jagger

Mick Jagger
Have I turned into a motorized preacher? We spend so much time in cars that if you don't try to get some experiences out of it, you can go crazy.

Mick Jagger
Americans are funny people: first you shock them, then they put you in a museum.
Mick Jagger
Patriotism is an instant reaction that fades away when the war starts.
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
I haven't had the time to plan returning to the scene because I haven't left it.
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
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
I don't really count myself as a very sophisticated businessperson. I'm a creative artist. All I know from business I've picked up along the way.
Mick Jagger
I never really studied business in school. I kind of wish I had, but how boring is that?
Mick Jagger
I would like to reach a balance and forget a few things.
Mick Jagger
I don't believe in having bands for solo records.
Mick Jagger
