Look at what we did to the planet. We ruined the planet. Take away the human beings and all their inventions and all the stuff we’ve made and the mess we make and you’ve got a much cleaner planet. It would be a lot healthier than it is right now. Would life be better for a zebra without mankind? Absolutely. Would it be better for the trees? Absolutely.

Nobody says you should stop painting when you’re 60. Nobody says you should stop writing novels when you’re 60. Nobody says that B.B. King should stop playing the blues. So The Rolling Stones go out there and people call them dinosaurs and they say, “What are you talking about? We’re reinventing what you can do at our age and if you don’t like it, OK, but don’t try to stop us.”
