- Know what I also love? Mannequins. I guess I want to bring them to life. I like to imagine talking to them. anda know what I think it is?
Yeah, I think I'll say it.
I think I'm accompanying myself with Friends I never had. I probably have two friends. And I just got them. Being an entertainer, anda just can't tell who is your friend. And they see anda so differently. A bintang instead of a next-door neighbor. That's what it is. I surround myself with people I want to be my friends. And I can do that with mannequins. I'll talk to them.
I sit there and say, 'Please don't call me up, I am too shy.' But once I get up there, I take control of myself. Being onstage is magic. There's nothing like it. anda feel the energy of everybody who's out there. anda feel it all over your body. When the lights hit you, it's all over, I swear it is.
Snakes are very misunderstood. Snakes, I suggest, may be the oldest victims of bad press.
I wake up from dreams and go, 'Wow, put this down on paper.' The whole thing is strange. anda hear the words, everything is right there in front of your face. And anda say to yourself, 'I'm sorry, I just didn't write this. It's there already.' That's why I hate to take credit for the songs I've written. I feel that somewhere, someplace, it's been done and I'm just a courier bringing it into the world. I really believe that. I Cinta what I do. I'm happy at what I do. It's escapism.
"Michael Jackson - Life in the magical kingdom" - Rolling Stone (February 17, 1983)
- Like the old Indian proverb says, do not judge a man until you've walked 2 moons in his moccosins.
- Most people don't know me, that is why they write such things in wich most is not true. I cry very very often because it hurts and I worry about the children, all my children all over the world, I live for them.
If a man could say nothing against a character but what he could prove, history could not be written.
Haiwan strike not from malice but because they want to live, it is the same with those who criticize, they desire our blood not our pain. But still I must achieve I must seek truth in all things. I must endure for the power I was sent forth, for the world for the children.
But have mercy, for I've been bleeding a long time now. MJ.
Handwritten note published in People (12 October 1987)
- Consciousness expresses itself through creation. This world we live in is the dance of the Creator. Dancers come and go in the twinkling of an eye but the dance lives on. On many an occasion when I am dancing, I have felt touched sejak something sacred. In those moments, I felt my spirit soar and become one with everything that exists. I become the stars and the moon. I become the lover and the beloved. I become the victor and the vanquished. I become the master and the slave. I become the singer and the song. I become the knower and the known. I keep on dancing and then, it is the eternal dance of creation. The Creator and the creation merge into one wholeness of joy. I keep on dancing — until there is only ... the dance.
"The Dance" - from inlay sleeve of Dangerous (1991)
- I have no problem with them imitating [me]. It's a compliment. Everybody has to start out looking up to someone. For me it was James Brown, Sammy Davis Jr., Jackie Wilson, Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly.
On pop groups like N'Sync; (1 November 2001) TV Guide interview. TV Guide. (accessed 2009-07-09)
- If anda enter this world knowing anda are loved and anda leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with.
Dancing the Dream (1992), also used in his funeral invitation. Quoted in "Dead stars and classic art will surround Michael Jackson " in CNN.com/entertainment (03 July 2009)
- I have begun to see that even my father's harshness was a kind of love. An imperfect love, to be sure, but Cinta nonetheless. He pushed me because he loved me, because he wanted no man to ever look down at his offspring. Now with time, rather than bitterness I feel blessing.… My initial fury has slowly telah diberi way to forgiveness.
"Heal the Kids" speech at the oxford Union (2001)
- I put a lot of mannequins in my room in the past, and I still have mannequins in my room, because I used to be very lonely, painfully lonely. anda have no idea. I used to walk the streets looking for people to talk to. I'm talking about the height of one's career…. I would walk up to them, strangers, and say, "will anda be my friend?" They'd go, "my god, Michael Jackson!" and that's not what I wanted.

- The record companies really do conspire against the artists. They steal. They cheat. They do whatever they can, especially the black artists.… Sony's Tommy Mottola is the president of the record division. He is mean. He is a racist, and he's very, very, very devilish.
Remarks at National Action Network headquarters (6 July 2002)
- The minit I started breaking the all-time record in record sales—I broke Elvis's records, I broke Beatles records—the minit it became the all-time best-selling album in the history of the guinness Book of World Records, overnight they called me a freak. They called me a homosexual. They called me a child molester. They berkata I bleached my skin. They made everything to turn the public against me.
Remarks at National Action Network headquarters (9 July 2002)
- I know my race. I just look in the mirror. I know I'm black.
Remarks at National Action Network headquarters (9 July 2002)
- I am speechless about the idea of putting Muzik peminat-peminat in jail for downloading music. It is wrong to illegally download, but the answer cannot be jail. Here in America we create new opportunities out of adversity, not punitive laws, and we should look to new technologies like Apple's new Muzik Store for solutions. This way, innovation continues to be the hallmark of America. It is the peminat-peminat that drive the success of the Muzik business.
Press statement (21 July 2003), quoted in "Jackson attacks Muzik piracy bill" in BBC News (22 July 2003)
- Lies run sprints but the truth runs marathons.

- In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.

Looking in my mirror
Took me sejak surprise
I can't help but see you
Running often through my mind
Helpless like a baby
Sensual disguise
I can't help but Cinta you
It gets better all the time
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
Cinta to run my fingers
Softly while anda sigh
Cinta came and possessed you
Bringing sparkles to your evey
Like a trip to heaven
Heaven is the prize
I'm so glad I found you
You're an Angel in disguise
I van't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
Took me sejak surprise

Once all alone
I was Lost in a world of strangers
No one to trust
On my own, I was lonely
anda suddenly appeared
It was cloudy before but now it's clear
anda took away the fear
anda brought me back to life
Chorus
anda are the sun
anda make me shine
atau lebih like the stars
That twinkle at night
anda are the moon
That glows in my hati, tengah-tengah
You're my daytime my nighttime
My world
You're my life
Now I wake up everyday
With this smile upon my face
No lebih tears, no lebih pain
Cause anda Cinta me
anda help me understand
That Cinta is the answer to all that I am
And I'am a better man
anda taught me sejak sharing your life
Chorus
anda are the sun
anda make me shine
atau lebih like the stars
That twinkle at night
anda are the moon
That glows in my hati, tengah-tengah
You're my daytime my nighttime
My world
You're my life
anda gave me strength
When I wasn't strong
anda gave me hope when all hope is Lost
anda opened my eyes when I couldn'tt see
Cinta was always here waiting for me
I was Lost in a world of strangers
No one to trust
On my own, I was lonely
anda suddenly appeared
It was cloudy before but now it's clear
anda took away the fear
anda brought me back to life
Chorus
anda are the sun
anda make me shine

That twinkle at night

That glows in my hati, tengah-tengah
You're my daytime my nighttime

Smile, though your hati, tengah-tengah is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If anda smile With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile if you'll just...
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time anda must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you'll just...
Smile, though your hati, tengah-tengah is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If anda smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you'll just Smile...
That's the time anda must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile

That's the time anda must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you'll just Smile
Sung to our hearts
Removed evil from our worlds with your sweet loving nature.
But behind your smile was both happiness and pain.
anda carried the pain,
While we, oblivious, mencuri the happiness.
A ray of sunshine and in a class of your own.
This world ever trying to destroy your light, not worthy of any part of your life.
Yet anda never saw it that way and gave us everything till nothing was left.
How could we have placed hatred on someone completely incapable of it.
In heaven now, anda have been set free to live eternally where anda belong. No pain will reach anda up there, of that I’m sure.
anda entered this world loved, left loved, and forever will be loved - what happened in between is unforgivable on our part but I pray that utama at last it can be dealt with.
- anda berkata anda saw the face of God in children, we saw it in you.
