I'm not a comedian. I'm not a show host. I'm a musician. That's why I've turned down offers to host the Grammy Awards and the American Music Awards. Is it really entertaining for me to get up there and crack a few weak jokes and force people to laugh because I'm Michael Jackson, when I know in my heart that I'm not funny?

We listen, we watch, we learn. We open our hearts and we open our minds, open our souls.

I care about being paid fairly for what I do. When I approach a project, I put my whole heart and soul into it. Because I really care about it.

You try to be as original as you can be without thinking about statistics. You just go from the soul and from the heart.

Masquerading the heart is the height of haunting souls.

There are people that I am in love with, totally in love with them. I would die for them. I love Michelangelo. I love Charlie Chaplin with all my heart. I love Walt Disney. These are the people I am nuts over. These are my people. I love the great ones.
