Everyone knows what their roots are, but you've got to explore everywhere. You've got to explore the sky too.

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.

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.

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.

Thank you for leaving us alone but giving us enough attention to boost our egos.

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

I don't find it easy dealing with people with drug problems. It helps if you're all taking drugs, all the same drugs.

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.

It's okay to let yourself go, just as long as you let yourself back.

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.

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

Rock has to absorb other rhythmic forms, because the underlying rhythm of music changes with fashion, and people like to move differently, and the underlying rhythms have to be the ones that people want to dance to.

It's not selling out, it is called making lots of money.
