More quotes by Michael Jackson
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.
Michael Jackson
I do believe deeply in perfection. I'm never satisfied.
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
The magic, the wonder, the mystery and the innocence of a child’s heart are the seeds of creativity that will heal the world.
Michael Jackson
I wrote a book called ‘Dancing The Dream’. It was more autobiographical than Moonwalk, which I did with Mrs. Onassis. It wasn’t full of gossip and scandal and all that trash that people write, so I don’t think people paid much attention to it, but it came from my heart. It was essays, thoughts and things that I’ve thought about while on tour
Michael Jackson
Loyalty is such a rare quality but my fans are the most loyal in the world.
Michael Jackson
Be careful what you do, because the lie becomes the truth.
Michael Jackson
I really do wish people could understand me some day.
Michael Jackson
I don't understand why the press is so interested in speculating about my appearance, anyway. What does my face have to do with my music or my dancing?
Michael Jackson
Through the years, I have helped thousands of children who were ill or in distress.
Michael Jackson
No! Once the music plays, it creates me. The instruments move me, through me, they control me. Sometimes I'm uncontrollable and it just happens - boom, boom, boom! - once it gets inside you.
Michael Jackson
The teacher always used me as an example to the class of good English and good storytelling because we all had to write the same stories. But she used to make me go out front - which I hated - and read my story to the class and I would get huge applause. Not because of who I was but because they truly enjoyed the stories I wrote.
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.
Michael Jackson
I love you all very very much and I shall never, ever forget you, I promise.
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
You can bring out your inner self and moods through dancing. Music does the same.
Michael Jackson
Before I would hurt a child, I would slit my wrists.
Michael Jackson
The foundation of all human knowledge, the beginning of human consciousness, must be that each and every one of us is an object of love. Before you know if you have red hair or brown, before you know if you are black or white, before you know of what religion you are a part, you have to know that you are loved
Michael Jackson
The purpose of parenting is to provide steady and wide-ranging opportunities for a child. The child does the rest.
Michael Jackson
People write negatives things, cause they feel that's what sells. Good news to them, doesn't sell.
Michael Jackson
