More quotes by 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
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
You have to write a song around this specific character or to enhance a specific scene. A lot of other craft goes on.
Mick Jagger
I like to have a peek, see what the audience is doing during the opening act, because it gives you a clue and gives you a good feeling of where you are - the air can be different in different places.
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
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
Acting is mostly interpretive. They use different parts of you, and different sides of you, and different so-called talents.
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
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
I, personally, have a lot of energy, so I don't see it as an immediate problem.
Mick Jagger
Boys, as far as England was concerned, were always the hard core. And you just know the guys like it. They want to be you. Some might be attracted to you without knowing it.
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
People get very thoughtful when they are in cars. I no longer care for cars. I don't collect them.
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
The only performance that makes it, that really makes it, that makes it all the way, is the one that achieves madness.
Mick Jagger
Life's just a cocktail party - on the street.
Mick Jagger
It's like everyone I have dinner with, I'm having an affair with. Who was it I met the other day? Minnie Driver! She seems charming, but that's the only time I've met her.
Mick Jagger
Rock & roll mostly is a very butch thing, and it appeals to one hard side of the masculine character. But I don't think the Rolling Stones are only a rock band. They can be other things. They can be very feminine.
Mick Jagger
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.
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
