MICK JAGGERMusic should elevate you. You can be raised, or left stranded. You can’t be raised all the time, in my experience. This might be a rare moment. You might just go up to that level but that’s always good.
MICK JAGGERYou don’t have to bathe every day to look clean. It’s just an illusion.
MICK JAGGERThank you for leaving us alone but giving us enough attention to boost our egos.
MICK JAGGERI don’t know if rock is dying. I wouldn’t want to say that, but the world does change. Nothing stays the same.
MICK JAGGERI love country music, but I find it very hard to take it seriously. I also think a lot of country music is sung with the tongue in cheek, so I do it tongue in cheek.
MICK JAGGERI should think that being my old lady would be all the satisfaction or career any woman needs.
MICK JAGGERThe only performance that makes it, that really makes it, that makes it all the way, is the one that achieves madness.
MICK JAGGEROf course we’re doing it for the money. We’ve always done it for the money.
MICK JAGGERI enjoy doing different kinds of things. I just enjoy being not tied too much. I feel that I’m tied to myself as a kind of traditional musician and a singer, and the history that I have ties me down.
MICK JAGGERThe past is a great place and I don’t want to erase it or to regret it, but I don’t want to be its prisoner either.
MICK JAGGERI’d rather be dead than singing “Satisfaction” when I’m forty-five.
MICK JAGGERI prefer to live in a rented house. No ties. Nothing around my neck. Just the minimum kind of bare comforts of home.
MICK JAGGERI think it’s very important that you have at least some sort of inner thing you don’t talk about. That’s why I find it distasteful when all these pop stars talk about their habits.
MICK JAGGERYou can’t always get what you want.
MICK JAGGERA good thing never ends.
