More quotes by Michael Jackson
I've heard that Black people and Black faces don't sell magazines, but one day you're going to beg me to be on there.
Michael Jackson
You can't hurt me, I found peace within myself.
Michael Jackson
The dream we were conceived in will reveal a joyful face, and the world we once believed in will shine again in grace.
Michael Jackson
If - and it can be in a movie or in a department store - I hear someone arguing with their child, I break down and cry. Because it reflects how I was treated when I was little.
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
You want what you create to live, and I give my all in my work because I want it to live.
Michael Jackson
They didn't trademark everything back then. Now someone farts and they put a TM after it. Even Miller Lite says 'A Fine Pilsner Beer' on the label. It is a crime.
Michael Jackson
Mama always told me, be careful what you do, don't go around breaking young girls hearts.
Michael Jackson
It all begins with forgiveness, because to heal the world, we first have to heal ourselves. And to heal the kids, we first have to heal the child within, each and every one of us.
Michael Jackson
Deep down inside we're all the same. We all have the same emotions.
Michael Jackson
Children show me in their playful smiles the divine in everyone. This simple goodness shines straight from their hearts and only asks to be loved.
Michael Jackson
Prejudice is ignorance.
Michael Jackson
We only live once, since we are given the gift of life it should be our persistent endeavor to immortalize ourselves no matter what field of endeavor we choose.
Michael Jackson
People who grew up as child stars have the same thing in common. You're cute, they love you you go through the awkward stage, they don't accept you any more. Very few make the transition to adult star.
Michael Jackson
Just try to stay a child as long as you can. Don't force into adulthood.
Michael Jackson
I never think about themes. I let the music create itself. I like it to be a potpourri of all kinds of sounds, all kinds of colors, something for everybody, from the farmer in Ireland to the lady who scrubs toilets in Harlem.
Michael Jackson
I am going to say something I have never said before and this is the truth. I have no reason to lie to you and God knows I am telling the truth. I think all my success and fame and I have wanted it, I have wanted it because I wanted to be loved. That's all. That's the real truth.
Michael Jackson
In Africa, S. B. once remarked, if you do well, people close to you will hate you.
Michael Jackson
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
What one wishes is to be touched by truth and to be able to interpret that truth so that one may use what one is feeling and experiencing, be it despair or joy, in a way that will add meaning to one's life and will hopefully touch others as well.
