  • I'm like a middle-aged person; when my friends go on about modern bands, I don't know what they are talking about. I'm into rock n' roll, like Jimi Hendrix. Not so much because of my parents, who used to play a lot of Nina Simone and older blues, but my brother and sister. -- Georgia May Jagger

  • I'm constantly snatching my books out of the hands of precocious ten-year-olds who are simply too young to read them, despite parents insisting that dear Octavia has a reading age of 28.

  • You know, my parents had a restaurant. And I left home, actually, in 1949, when I was 13 years old, to go into apprenticeship.
