The Sun & The Moon & The Rolling Stones QUOTES

1 " Geography is destiny. "

― Rich Cohen , The Sun & The Moon & The Rolling Stones

2 " But when I asked if she was behind 'You Can't Always Get What You Want,' she said, 'Absolutely. That's my song. Every time I hear it, I'm right back with Mick in the flat. Music can't tell time. "

― Rich Cohen , The Sun & The Moon & The Rolling Stones

3 " This is where my generation, Generation X, parts company with the baby boomers. They ruined drugs, as they ruined Frye boots and bell-bottoms. We never shared their dream of opening the doors of perception, or touching the face of God. Because of them, enlightenment seemed like bullshit. All that remained was the high. With their embarrassing enthusiasm, they turned everything into a joke. They ate the fruit and left the peel, smoked the pot and left the resin, swallowed the epiphanies and left the reality. When it was our time, they scolded us, saying it was too dangerous—you’d have to be a moron to try it. About their own youthful behavior, they’d say, We didn’t know then what we know now. By the time we came along, everything was banned, feared, and covered in protective foam, but can you imagine how much fun LSD must have been in 1964 when it was legal? "

― Rich Cohen , The Sun & The Moon & The Rolling Stones

4 " ...the Beatles and the Stones, never the Stones and the Beatles. "

― Rich Cohen , The Sun & The Moon & The Rolling Stones

5 " The god of the Hebrews is wrath. The god of the Christians is forgiveness. The god of rock ’n’ roll is energy. The enemy of that god is arena rock, which looks and feels like real rock but is in truth an abomination. "

― Rich Cohen , The Sun & The Moon & The Rolling Stones
