More quotes by Michael Jackson
I really do wish people could understand me some day.
Michael Jackson
With my music, with what I do, I would like to bring a light into the world.
Michael Jackson
Fred Astaire told me things I will never forget. Gene Kelly also said he liked my dancing. It was a fantastic experience because I felt I had been inducted into an informal fraternity of dancers, and I felt so honored because these were the people I most admired in the world.
Michael Jackson
I put real pressure on myself and I demand the best out of myself.
Michael Jackson
All the forms of popular music from jazz to hip-hop, to bebop, to soul [come from black innovation]. You talk about different dances from the catwalk, to the jitterbug, to the Charleston, to break dancing -\-\ all these are forms of black dancing...What would [life] be without a song, without a dance, and joy and laughter, and music.
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
Being on stage is magic. There's nothing like it. You feel the energy of everybody who's out there. You feel it all over your body. When the lights hit you, it's all over, I swear it is.
Michael Jackson
If you're satisfied with everything you're just going to stay at one level and the world will move ahead.
Michael Jackson
I wouldn't say I was sexy! But I guess that's fine if that's what they say. I like that in concert. That's neat.
Michael Jackson
I love animals because all they really want from you is love. Too bad that's even too much to ask for from some people.
Michael Jackson
I love you all very very much and I shall never, ever forget you, I promise.
Michael Jackson
An artist’s imagination is his greatest tool
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.
Michael Jackson
Nothing's real ,but all is possible if God is on my side
Michael Jackson
But if you don't have that memory of being loved, you are condemned to search the world for something to fill you up. But no matter how much money you make or how famous you become, you will still feel empty. What you are really searching for is unconditional love, unqualified acceptance. And that was the one thing that was denied to you at birth.
Michael Jackson
I love John Travolta, who came off that Kotter show. Nobody knew he could dance or do all of those things. He is like - boom. Before he knew it, he was the next big Brando or something.
Michael Jackson
The key to being a wonderful writer is not to write. You just get out of the way. Leave room for God to walk in the room. And when I write something that I know is right, I get on my knees and say 'thank you.'
Michael Jackson
I like people who can make you laugh without using vulgarity, or bad words.
Michael Jackson
I just can't conceive of how a person could hate another because of skin color. I love every race on the planet earth.
Michael Jackson
Out of the bliss comes magic, wonderment and creativity.
Michael Jackson
