Quote

I'm not a comedian. I'm not a show host. I'm a musician. That's why I've turned down offers to host the Grammy Awards and the American Music Awards. Is it really entertaining for me to get up there and crack a few weak jokes and force people to laugh because I'm Michael Jackson, when I know in my heart that I'm not funny?

More quotes by Michael Jackson

Image
Oh, no, I think I'd die on my own. I'd be so lonely. Even at home, I'm lonely. I sit in my room and sometimes cry. It is so hard to make friends, and there are some things you can't talk to your parents or family about. I sometimes walk around the neighborhood at night, just hoping to find someone to talk to. But I just end up coming home.

I love the whole world of dance, because dancing is really the emotions through bodily movement. And however you feel, you just bring out the inner feeling through your mood...people don't think about the importance of it.
Michael Jackson

I deserve a fair trial, like every other American citizen. A large amount of ugly, malicious misinformation has been released to the media about me.

Honor your parents by not judging them. Give them the benefit of doubt.

A musician knows hit material. It has to feel right. Everything has to feel in place. It fulfills you and it makes you feel good. You know it when you hear it.
Michael Jackson

I have the greatest fans in the world. I love them.. All of them, I really do.
Michael Jackson

We can help the world live without fear. It's our only hope, without hope we are lost.

I am scared of my father to this day. My father walked in the room - and God knows I am telling the truth - I have fainted in his presence many times. I have fainted once to be honest. I have thrown up in his presence because when he comes in the room and this aura comes and my stomach starts hurting and I know I am in trouble.
Michael Jackson

I am always writing a potpourri of music. I want to give the world escapism through the wonder of great music and to reach the masses.

Whatever you believe, you become.

Wherever you go - in every country, or in every continent, people yearn and hunger for only one thing, to love and be loved. Love transcends international boundaries and heals the wounds of hatred, racial, prejudice, bigotry and ignorance. It is the ultimate truth at the heart of all creation.

I wanted so badly to play in the park across the street because the kids were playing baseball and football but I had to record.

I don't like pop music.

Be humble, believe in yourself, and have the love of the world in your heart.

When I was five I was touring, singing and dancing. Always gone, always out of school.

There is an inherent dissonancebetween the quasi-formal world of computer programs - defining the programmed machine in each system - and the non-formal problem world of the system requirements.

I love you all very very much and I shall never, ever forget you, I promise.
Michael Jackson

Deep inside I feel that this world we live in is really a big, huge, monumental symphonic orchestra. I believe that in its primordial form, all of creation is sound and that it's not just random sound, that it's music.

Its all for love... L.O.V.E.

Pierre Bordieu was right: The all powerful is he who does not wait but makes others wait. Absolute power is the power to make oneself unpredictable and deny other people any reasonable anticipation, to place them in total uncertainty by offering no scope for their capacity to predict.
