More quotes by Mick Jagger
Dandelions don't tell no lies.
Mick Jagger
Lose your dreams and you might lose your mind.
Mick Jagger
Only a madman or an actor would want to be President of the United States.
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
We have recorded songs on the same day that were released years later in other albums.
Mick Jagger
Americans are funny people: first you shock them, then they put you in a museum.
Mick Jagger
Americans get very simple explanations of what happens to them.
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 wasn't taking so many drugs that it was messing up my creative processes. It was a very good period, 1968 - there was a good feeling in the air. It was a very creative period for everyone.
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
If you're really on some heavily addictive drug, you think about the drug, and everything else is secondary. You try and make everything work, but the drug comes first.
Mick Jagger
Acting is mostly interpretive. They use different parts of you, and different sides of you, and different so-called talents.
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
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
You can't always get what you want.
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
Thank you for leaving us alone but giving us enough attention to boost our egos.
Mick Jagger
The Beatles were so big that it's hard for people not alive at the time to realize just how big they were.
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
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
