Quote

I totally enjoy what I'm doing and bringing joy into people's lives. To me, and if I can bring one second of joy into a child or a grown-up's life, then I have achieved my lifetime ambition.

I prefer children because they are honest. They don't want anything from you other than to have fun. Adults have let me down. Adults have let the world down.
Michael Jackson

Well Brooke, I've always liked her, and when I was little I used to stay with Diana Ross, me and my brothers stayed with her for years and I never said, but I always had a crush on her.
Michael Jackson
Image
How would I like to be remembered? As a person who came and brought light to the world, some escapism. Also as the voice for the voiceless children, because I love them.
Michael Jackson
Image
I'm just like anyone. I cut and I bleed. And I embarass easily.
Michael Jackson

For me, Love is something very pure.

I love to read. I wish I could advise more people to read. There’s a whole new world in books. If you can’t afford to travel, you travel mentally through reading. You can see anything and go any place you want to in reading.
Michael Jackson
Image
I like people who can make you laugh without using vulgarity, or bad words.
Michael Jackson

The most conspicuous thing about suffering is, as W.H. Auden once observed, its banality. The day is green, the sun is shinging, someone is eating, or opening a window, the torturer's horse is scatching its innocent behind on a tree, and in a mere second someone we love is dead.

You can always dream, and your dreams can come true. But you have to make them come true
Michael Jackson

Going to my shows, it's like a religious experience, because you come out, you go in one person, you come out a different person.
Michael Jackson

James Brown, Ray Charles, Jackie Wilson, Chuck Berry and Little Richard - I think they had strong influences on a lot of people, because these were the guys who really got rock'n'roll going. I like to start with the origin of things, because once it gets along it changes. It's so interesting to see how it really was in the beginning.

Well, especially now I come to realize - and then - I would do my schooling which was three hours with a tutor and right after that I would go to the recording studio and record, and I'd record for hours and hours until it's time to go to sleep.

All the things I've read in my school books about England and the Queen were okay, but my eyes are the greatest book in the world.
Michael Jackson
Image
Please keep an open mind and let me have my day in court.
Michael Jackson
Image
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.

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.

Ain't no mountain that I can't climb, baby

In Africa, S. B. once remarked, if you do well, people close to you will hate you.

Just try to stay a child as long as you can. Don't force into adulthood.

Yet, instead of loving our children more, we install metal detectors in our schools.
