More quotes by Michael Jackson
I want people to appreciate talent and ability.
Michael Jackson
I'm trying to imitate Jesus in the fact that he said to be like children, to love children, to be as pure as children and to make yourself as innocent and to see the world through eyes of wonderment and the whole magical quality of it all.
Michael Jackson
I don't like pop music.
Michael Jackson
Beat me, hate me, you can never break me.
Michael Jackson
I can tell you there are rewards that go far beyond money and public acclaim and awards.
Michael Jackson
I'm going to search for my star until I find it. It's hidden in the drawer of innocence, wrapped in a scarf of wonder.
Michael Jackson
I love performing. It's a phenomenal getaway. If you want to really let out everything you feel, that's the time to do it.
Michael Jackson
When you want to be close to me, listen to the music. The love is stored there and will not die.
Michael Jackson
When I step out on stage in front of thousands of people, I don't feel that I'm being brave. It can take much more courage to express true feelings to one person. [...] In spite of the risks, the courage to be honest and intimate opens the way to self-discovery. It offers what we all want, the promise of love.
Michael Jackson
Sometimes when you're treated unfairly it makes you stronger and more determined. I admire that kind of strength. People who have it take a stand and put their blood and soul into what they believe.
Michael Jackson
I've been an ambassador of goodwill all over the world, spreading this message, did we do heal the world, treaty of all nations, circling this huge globe? What I don't understand is just singing about sex and I want to get in a hot tub with you baby and rub you all over and, but I get battered in the press as the weirdo.
Michael Jackson
What I enjoy most about performing is making people happy. Just to make a person smile means more to me than anything.
Michael Jackson
Look who's standing if you please, 'though you tried to bring me to my knees.
Michael Jackson
They hunt you. It's terrible... They never think about how the person feels about what they write.
Michael Jackson
Not the stars, not the farthest solar systems, not the millions of different species of animal life, but the child is the greatest of God's creations.
Michael Jackson
When I perform, I lose myself. I'm in total control of that stage. I don't think about anything. I know what I want to do from the moment I step out there and I love every minute of it.
Michael Jackson
I am committed to my art. I believe that all art has as its ultimate goal the union between the material and the spiritual, the human and the divine. I believe that to be the reason for the very existence of art.
Michael Jackson
It all went by so fast, didn't it? I wish I could do it all over again, I really do.
Michael Jackson
People think they know me, but they don`t. Not really. Actually, I am one of the loneliest people on this earth. I cry sometimes, because it hurts. It does. To be honest, I guess you could say that it hurts to be me.
Michael Jackson
Sensationalism seems to sell more than wonderful-positive news.
