"Bianca Jagger gives evidence to US Congressional committees, visits slums in India, documents atrocities in Bosnia, and does not need to warn the new acquaintance that jovial inquiries about riding into Studio 54 on a white horse are not the best of ice-breakers. Her bearing, her gaze, defies you to be so contemptuous as to try to define her by a marriage to a Rolling Stone that ended [over 30] years ago." —Sholto Byrnes, The Independent
