To be given permission to be confused -- and remain confused -- for as long as it takes would have been a huge gift.

More quotes by Janet Jackson
There are two things that really move me: music and acting. And I'm not talking about my music or watching myself as an actor, but listening to other people's music and watching other actors. There are so many different songs that have moved me. It all depends upon the mood that I'm in at that moment.
Janet Jackson
Bound together by our beliefs, we are like minded individuals, sharing a common vision, pushing toward a world rid of color lines.
Janet Jackson
I've always been a tomboy. I've always liked to wear red, black, and white, and mostly pants.
Janet Jackson
I was raised with a ton of brothers and sisters where, obviously, the music running in and out of the house was very eclectic. So, I had a lot under my belt by the time I grew up. It all depends upon the mood that I'm in, the space that I'm in and what I'm feeling at that moment. But definitely!
Janet Jackson
I'm no expert. I have no psychic powers, and I sure don't possess any secret wisdom. I'm just Janet. I have strengths, weaknesses, fears, happiness, sadness. I experience joy and I experience pain. I'm highly emotional. I'm very vulnerable.
Janet Jackson
That's always - that's been another dream of mine, to do a Broadway play. An award winning Broadway play.
Janet Jackson
Self-expression is my goal, I want to be real with my feelings. Singing and dancing and all the joy that goes with performing come from my heart. If I can't feel it, I won't do it.
Janet Jackson
I was a very quiet kid. A really sweet kid, I might add.
Janet Jackson
If people want to know the truth, why don't they just come to me and ask?
Janet Jackson
I can't believe people got so upset at the sight of a single breast! America is so parochial, I may just have to move to Europe where people are more mature about things like that!
Janet Jackson
I wanted to be a jockey. I'm serious. First time I got on a horse, I loved it. That's what I wanted to be, but my dad asked me to start performing with my family.
Janet Jackson
I would love to. A dream of mine is to produce films, as well as to produce content for television.
Janet Jackson
I have a pretty bad temper. But you have to really push me to see it. But everybody has their things.
Janet Jackson
I enjoy them both [singing and acting] a great deal. I have a passion for both. Maybe acting just a little bit more because it's more of a challenge for me, while music comes so easily.
Janet Jackson
People can have rhinoceros skin, but there's a point when something's going to hurt you.
Janet Jackson
I wanted to be on my own and get out of the house. We were the kind of kids that - we - obeyed our parents. If they said no, you don't ask why.
Janet Jackson
People do see me as sweet and innocent. Not to say that I am not those things. But I have other sides to me.
Janet Jackson
I was two when we left Indiana, and I don't really remember it that well.
Janet Jackson
I was sheltered, and there's good and bad to that. The good was not getting into the drugs and the alcohol and the really sorry stuff, and the bad was finally coming out into the real world and trying to deal with it, which was hard for me.
Janet Jackson
As a child, I had to get up early for school or work. I'd get ready by myself. I'd set my alarm to wake me up very early in the morning, and be off to work, the family driver driving me every morning. I did it alone, my parents never coming in to wake me up.
