The Stones don't really need to do it for money, so they must get some kind of pleasure out of it. They're not like a group that's disbanded and gone away and made a comeback. They've always been there.

I had a wonderful time with the Stones but after 31 years, I thought it was time to move on.

I am much more my own man than I was when I was with the Stones.

The reason for the sadness of this modern age and the men who live in it is that it looks for the truth in everything and finds it.

I'm the eldest at 51, and if the Stones can drag themselves around once more, then there's a few more albums in us.

That's why 60,000 people go ape when the Stones play 'Satisfaction.' The songs are part of their legacy, and you fall back in love with them over the years.

Fashion has become so whatever. I don't think there are any stones left to unturn.

The Stones are a different kind of group. I realized that when I joined them. It's not really so much their musical ability, it's just they have a certain kind of style and attitude which is unique.

But, you know, the Stones were my opening act in the Sixties. I loved those British guys, the way they just stood there and shook their hair.

I have seen lonely people of advancing age, yet as constant as angels, keeping faith to those they loved who fell in wars that current generations, not having known them, cannot even forget. The sight of them moving hesitantly among the tablets and crosses is enough to break your heart.
