I always knew the Sixties wasn't a revolution. It really was just a bunch of university students with wealthy parents having fun.

The only good political movement I've seen lately was Occupy Wall Street. They had no leaders, which was genius. But unfortunately it always ends up with some hippy playing a flute.

Judge not others unless you're prepared to be judged!

For me people are people, without meaning to sound corny, it's a plain natural fact, music is a universal language and I've always known that and observed that and treated music with great respect accordingly.

Records were vitally important to the development of music and of all music cultures. With that being pushed by the wayside, I can't see an iPod uniting us. In fact it separates us, the streets are full of people bumping into lamp posts, listening to their own little universe, and there's no sharing in that.

Let's face it, I ain't ever gonna be the best singer in the world, or the best anything.

There are some Rolling Stones songs that are just stunners.
