Holding On To Love Is Not Wrong, But You Need To Learn To Hold It Lightly, Caressingly. Let It Fly When It Wants. When It's Allowed To Be Free, Love Is What Makes Life Alive, Joyful, And New. As Long As Love Is In My Heart, It's Everywhere.

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.

I Was A Veteran, Before I Was A Teenager.

Just Because It's In Print Doesn't Mean It's The Gospel.

Once At A Record Store In San Francisco, Over A Thousand Kids Showed Up. They Pushed Forward And Broke A Window. A Big Piece Of Glass Fell On Top Of This Girl. And The Girl's Throat Was Slit. She Just Got Slit. And I Remember There Was Blood Everywhere. Oh God, So Much Blood. And She Grabbed Her Throat And Was Bleeding And Everyone Just Ignored Her. Why?

I Fast Every Sunday. I Don’t Eat Anything. Just Juices. […] It Flushes Out The System, Cleans Out The Colon. I Think That’s Great. To Really Make It Work, You Have To Do It Properly. That’s The Sewer Valve Of The System. You Have To Keep That Clean Like You Clean The Outside Of Your Body. All These Impurities Come Out Of Your System Because You’re Not Clean Inside. It Comes Out In Pimples Or Disease Or Through Big Pores. Toxins Trying To Get Out Of Your System. People Should Try To Keep Themselves Clean.

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.

Exclamation Points

May We Continue To Remember Not To Judge Man By The Color Of His Skin, But The Content Of His Character.

The Wizard Of Oz" Has Secrets That Are Just Too Much. Or "peter Pan" – The Whole 'lost Boys' Thing Is Just Incredible. They’re Not Childlike At All, They’re Really, Really Deep; You Can Rule Your Life By Them. Or Say 'child-like', Because Children Are The Most Brilliant People Of All, That’s Why They Relate To Those Stories So Well. Fairy-tales Are Wonderful.

The Lyrics, The Strings, The Chords, Everything Comes At The Moment Like A Gift That Is Put Right Into Your Head And That's How I Hear It.

I Want My Work To Help People Rediscover The Child That's Hiding In Them.

It's A Complete Lie, Why Do People Buy These Papers? It's Not The Truth I'm Here To Say. You Know, Don't Judge A Person, Do Not Pass Judgement, Unless You Have Talked To Them One On One. I Don't Care What The Story Is, Do Not Judge Them Because It Is A Lie.

They Say That Parenting Is Like Dancing. You Take One Step, Your Child Takes Another.

I Do Think That Marriage Can Be A Wonderful Thing If It's The Right Thing For The Two People Involved. I Believe In Love - Very Much So - How Can You Not Believe After You've Experienced It? I Believe In Relationships. One Day, I Know I'll Find The Right Woman And Get Married Myself.

I'm Trying To Imitate Jesus In The Fact That He Said To Be Like Children, To Love Children, To Be As Pure As Children And To Make Yourself As Innocent And To See The World Through Eyes Of Wonderment And The Whole Magical Quality Of It All.

Have You Seen My Childhood? I'm Searching For The World That I Came From Cause I've Been Looking Around In The Lost And Found Of My Heart.

Elizabeth Taylor Is Gorgeous, Beautiful, And She Still Is Today, I'm Crazy About Her.

I'm Crazy About Steven Spielberg. Another Inspiration For Me, And I Don't Know Where It Came From, Is Children. If I'm Down, I'll Take A Book With Children's Pictures And Look At It And It Will Just Lift Me Up. Being Around Children Is Magic.

On The Brilliance Of James Brown's Dancing − And The Frustrations Of Bad Camera-work On Dancers:cers: I Think James Brown Is A Genius You Know When He's With The Famous Flames, Unbelievable. I Used To Watch Him On Television And I Used To Get Angry At The Camera-man Because Whenever He Would Really Start To Dance They Would Be On A Close-up So I Couldn't See His Feet. I'd Shout "show Him! Show Him!", So I Could Watch And Learn.

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.

Often People Just Don't See What I See. They Have Too Much Doubt. You Can't Do Your Best When You're Doubting Yourself. If You Don't Believe In Yourself, Who Will?

Your Cameras Can't Control The Minds Of Those Who Know, That You'll Even Sell Your Soul Just To Get A Story Sold.

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.

I Love Fairytales. I Like Fantasy A Lot, Science Fiction, I Like Magic. I Like To Create Magic. I Love Magic.

Being A World Traveler, I'm Touched And Moved By Everything That Happens, Especially To Children. It Gets Me Emotionally Sick And I Go Through A Lot Of Pain When I See That Type Of Pain. I Can't Pretend As If I Don't See It. It Affects Me Very Much.

Sometimes The Heart Is So Heavy That We Turn Away From It And Forget That Its Throbbing Is The Wisest Message Of Life, A Wordless Message That Says, "live, Be, Move, Rejoice -- You Are Alive!" Without The Heart's Wise Rhythm, We Could Not Exist.

Heal The World, Make It A Better Place.

I Love Elizabeth Taylor. I'm Inspired By Her Bravery. She Has Been Through So Much And She Is A Survivor. That Lady Has Been Through A Lot And She's Walked Out Of It On Two Feet. I Identify With Her Very Strongly Because Of Our Experiences As Child Stars. When We First Started Talking On The Phone, She Told Me She Felt As If She Had Known Me For Years. I Felt The Same Way.

I Never Have Felt That People Should Feel That They Are Better Than Others, Simply Because They Just Happen To Possess A Larger Share Of Material Items And Monetary Wealth Than Others Less Fortunate. I Believe In Sharing, Assisting, And Just Lending A Helping Hand To People.

I Love You All Very; Very Much And I Shall Never, Ever Forget You, I Promise.

Tenderoni, You've Got To Be.

Deep Inside I Feel That This World We Live In Is Really A Big, Huge, Monumental Symphonic Orchestra. I Believe That In Its Primordial Form All Of Creation Is Sound And That It's Not Just Random Sound, That It's Music. You've Heard The Expression, Music Of The Spheres? Well, That's A Very Literal Phrase. In The Gospels, We Read, "and The Lord God Made Man From The Dust Of The Earth And Breathed Into His Nostrils The Breath Of Life And Man Became A Living Soul." That 'breath Of Life' To Me Is The Music Of Life And It Permeates Every Fiber Of Creation.

My Goal In Life Is To Give To The World What I Was Lucky To Receive: The Ecstasy Of Divine Union Through My Music And My Dance.

Dancers Come And Go In The Twinkling Of An Eye, But The Dance Lives On.

Songwriting Is A Very Frustrating Art Form. You Have To Get On Tape Exactly What's Playing Inside Your Head

I've Been An Ambassador Of Goodwill All Over The World, Spreading This Message, Did We Do Heal The World, Treaty Of All Nations, Circling This Huge Globe? What I Don't Understand Is Just Singing About Sex And "i Want To Get In A Hot Tub With You Baby And Rub You All Over" And, But I Get Battered In The Press As The Weirdo.

Somebody Once Said It's The Soul That Matters

Music Is The Soundtrack To Life. It Plays The Melody Of Our Being.

There's A Mother's Day And There's A Father's Day, But There's No Children's Day. It Would Mean A Lot. World Peace.

To Me, Ballads Are Special, Because You Can Have A Pop Song That’ll Be Know For Three Weeks And Then You’ll Hear Nothing Else About It. Nobody Else Will Record It And It’ll Just Be Gone. But If You Do A Good Ballad, It’ll Be In The World Forever.

I Don't Care If The Whole World Is Against You Or Teasing You Or Saying You Are Not Gonna Make It. Believe In Yourself, No Matter What.

We Are Behaving Like People Without Compassion And Love For The Most Vulnerable Section Of Society. The Children Of The Universe Are Without A Spokesperson, They Are Voiceless...we Are All Touched By The Atrocities Committed Against Children: Sexual, Physical Abuse, Child Slave Labor, Educational Neglect. We Feel Ashamed. Angry. Appalled. But There Is No Action...no Action.

You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet, And The Best Is Yet To Come.

Best Is Yet To Come

Grinning, Ducking My Head For Balance, I Start To Spin Wildly As I Can. That Is My Favorite Dance, Because It Contains A Secret. The Faster I Twirl, The More I Am Still Inside. My Dance Is All Motion Without, All Silence Within. As Much As I Love To Make Music, It's The Unheard Music That Never Dies. And Silence Is My Real Dance, Though It Never Moves. It Stands Aside, My Choreographer Of Grace, And Blesses Each Finger And Toe.

We Are Germans. We Are Armenians. French, Italian, Russian, American, Asian, African... Many Other Nationalities. We Are Christians, Jewish, Muslim And Hindu. We Are Black, We Are White. We Are A Community Of Some Many Differences, So Complex And Yet So Simple. We Do Not Need To Have War!

I Just Don't Like Being On A Lot Of Different Things Or Being Everywhere Because I Get Kind Of Embarrassed.

If I'm Not Creating, I'm Not As Happy.

This Extravagant Dwelling, As Domineering As It Was Distant, Brought Home To Me The Intimateconnection Between Tyranny And Abstraction, And Put Me In Mind Of John Berger's Observation That "abstraction's Capacity To Ignore What Is Real Is Undoubtedly Where Most Evil Begins."

Damned Indecision And Cursed Pride.

Loyalty Is Such A Rare Quality; But My Fans Are The Most Loyal In The World.

I Am Committed To My Art. I Believe That All Art Has As Its Ultimate Goal The Union Between The Material And The Spiritual, The Human And The Divine. I Believe That To Be The Reason For The Very Existence Of Art.

Nothing Quenches The Thirst Like A Wheat Beer, Or Sharpens The Appetite Like An India Pale Ale. Nothing Goes As Well With Seafood As A Dry Porter Or Stout, Or Accompanies Chocolate Like An Imperial Stout. Nothing Soothes Like A Barleywine. These Are Just A Few Of The Specialty Styles Of Beer.

Me And Janet Really Are Two Different People.

I Have Been The Artist With The Longest Career, And I Am So Proud And Honored To Be Chosen From Heaven To Be Invincible.

Love. Children Are Loving, They Dont Gossip, They Dont Complain, Theyre Just Open-hearted. Theyre Ready For You. They Dont Judge. They Dont See Things By Way Of Color. Theyre Very Child-like. Thats The Problem With Adults: They Lose That Child-like Quality. And Thats The Level Of Inspiration Thats So Needed And Is So Important For Creating And Writing Songs And For A Sculptor, A Poet Or A Novelist. Its That Same Kind Of Innocence, That Same Level Of Consciousness, That You Create From. And Kids Have It. I Feel It Right Away From Animals And Children And Nature. Of Course.

My Mother's Wonderful. To Me She's Perfection.

Please, I Don't Want Anybody To Think I'm Starving, I'm Not. My Health Is Perfect, Actually.

I Believe In God.....i Gain Strength From God. I Believe In Jehovah, God, Very Much.....i Believe In God And Love God.

I Truly Believe I Have The Most Wonderful Fans In The World.

I Was Taught To Be Biblical: “forgive Them For They Know Not What They Do.

Christ On The Cross

What Can I Do But Bring Forth The Talent That God Gave Me? That's All I Wanted To Do. To Share The Love And Gift Of Entertainment. That's All I Want To Do. I Don't Want To Hurt Anybody.

My Deepest Gratitude To The Creator For His Gift To Me...the Joy I Receive In Creating My Music.

I'm A Gentleman, Call Me Old Fashioned If You Want.

On Many Occasions When I Am Dancing I've Felt Touched By Something Sacred. In Those Moments, I Felt My Spirit Soar And Become One With Everything That Exists !

When You Have A Special Gift You Don’t Realize It Because You Think Everyone Else Has The Same Gift.

Escapism- That's What I Like. I'm Not So Crazy About The Reality Of Everything.

Yeah, "wacko Jacko". Where'd That Come From? Some English Tabloid. I Have A Heart And I Have Feelings, I Feel That, When You Do That To Me. It's Not Nice.

Unconditional Love Is All You Have. You Can't Overdose On Love, You Never Can. It's A Beautiful Thing.

Unconditional Love

When You Want To Be Close To Me, Listen To The Music. The Love Is Stored There And Will Not Die.

I Believe We Are Powerful But We Don't Use Our Minds To Full Capacity. Your Mind Is Powerful Enough To Help You Attain Whatever You Want.

God Has Always Been In My Heart And A Part Of My Life And My Familys Lives. It Is Through Him That We Draw Our Strength.

Deep Inside I Feel That This World We Live In Is Really A Big, Huge, Monumental Symphonic Orchestra. I Believe That In Its Primordial Form, All Of Creation Is Sound And That It's Not Just Random Sound, That It's Music.

I'm Really Very Self-confident When It Comes To My Work. When I Take On A Project, I Believe In It 100%. I Really Put My Soul Into It. I'd Die For It. That's How I Am.

Ain't No Mountain That I Can't Climb, Baby

To Clink Glasses Of A Freshly Made, Seasonal Beer, Preferably In A Pub Or Garden, With Friends And Perhaps New Acquaintances, Is A Ritual That Makes Every Participant Feel Good. We May Not Rationalize This At The Time, But It Gives Us A Sense Of Place In Our Common Community And Our Time In The Tides Of Life On Earth. This Is A Way To Value Beer And Treat It With Respect.

I Think The Actor Or Performer Should Be - To Touch That Truth Inside Of A Person. Touch That Reality So Much That They Become A Part Of What You're Going And You Can Take Them Anywhere You Want To.

I Wasn't Aware That The World Thought I Was So Weird And Bizarre. But When You Grow Up, Like I Did, In Front Of 100 Million People Since The Age Of 5, You're Automatically Different.

Its All For Love... L.o.v.e.

I've Helped Many, Many, Many Children, Thousands Of Children, Cancer Kids, Leukemia Kids.

Today I Feel More Betrayed Than Perhaps Ever Before, That Someone Who Had Got To Know My Children, My Staff And Me, Whom I Let Into My Heart And Told The Truth, Could Then Sacrifice The Trust I Placed In Him And Produce This Terrible And Unfair Program.

I Was Too Shy To Be Around Real People. It Wasn't Like Old Ladies Talking To Plants.

Culture Changes, Fashions Change, Customs Change. Great Music Is Immortal.

Just Watching A Girl Can Give Me The Best Reason To Smile. Girls Are Something Very Special And You Got To Treat Them That Way. That's Why I Always Say Don't Stare Right At A Chick. She'll Begin To Fidget, Wondering If Her Hair's Messed Up Or If Her Make-up Is Smeared. It's Kind Of Like Going To An Art Gallery To See Beautiful Paintings. If You Look At A Painting Just The Right Way, You Get The Most Out Of It!

With Just A Little Love And A Little Caring, I Have Seen Kids Totally Turn Around. Where You Can't Find Any Cancer At All Anymore In Their Body. I've Done It A Lot Of Times. I'm Not Trying To Say I'm Jesus Christ. We Should Just Give A Little More Attention To The Power Of Love And Caring And Faith And Prayer.

There Are Two Kinds Of Music. One Comes From The Strings Of A Guitar, The Other From The Strings Of The Heart.

I Always Want To Do Music That Inspires Or Influences Another Generation. You Want What You Create To Live, Be It Sculpture Or Painting Or Music. Like Michelangelo, He Said, “i Know The Creator Will Go, But His Work Survives. That Is Why To Escape Death, I Attempt To Bind My Soul To My Work.

Because I Think Every Child Star Suffers Through This Period Because You're Not The Cute And Charming Child That You Were. You Start To Grow, And They Want To Keep You Little Forever.

I Say, ‘you Should Blanket Me’ Or ‘you Should Blanket Her’, Meaning Like A Blanket Is A Blessing. It’s A Way Of Showing Love And Caring.

Just Try To Stay A Child As Long As You Can. Don't Force Into Adulthood.

Beat Me, Hate Me, You Can Never Break Me.

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 Then, It Is The Eternal Dance Or Creation. The Creator And Creation Merge Into One Wholeness Of Joy. I Keep On Dancing And Dancing...and Dancing. Until There Is Only...the Dance.

Some Friends, You Only See Them When The Sun Shines.. My Fans Sustained Me Even In Dark Days. I Owe Them Everything.

Needless To Say, I Love The Interaction Between The Sexes; It Is A Natural Part Of Life And I Love Women. I Just Think That When Sex Is Used As A Form Of Blackmail Or Power, It's A Repugnant Use Of One Of God's Gifts.

It Doesn't Matter What Blood Or Race Or Creed Or Color. Love Is Love And It Breaks All Boundaries And You Just See It Right Away.

We Have To Heal Our Wounded World. The Chaos, Despair, And Senseless Destruction We See Today Are A Result Of The Alienation That People Feel From Each Other And Their Environment.

Children Show Me In Their Playful Smiles The Divine In Everyone.

Wherever You Go, In Every Country, On Every Continent, People Yearn And Hunger For One Thing: To Love And Be Loved.

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.

Don't Blame It On The Sunshine. Don't Blame It On The Moonlight. Blame It On The Boogie.

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.

Each Song Is A Child I Nourish And Give My Love To. But Even If You Have Never Written A Song, Your Life Is A Song. How Can It Not Be?

Real Charity Is Giving From The Heart Without Taking Credit.

I Am A Slave To The Rhythm. I Am A Palette. I Just Go With The Moment. You've Got To Do It That Way Because If You're Thinking, You're Dead. Performing Is Not About Thinking; It's About Feeling.
