I said if you're thinkin' of being my brother, it don't matter if you're black or white.

When I look into the eyes of my Prince, and my daughter Paris, I see miracles and I see beauty.

I don't like to see anybody hurt or suffer, especially children.

If you don't have that memory of being loved, you are condemned to search the world for something to fill you up.

I want people to hear or watch something I've done and feel that I've given it everything I've got.

Like the Bible says. A child should be leader of them all, and to be led by that kind of innocence. Didnt Jesus say bring on the children? Be like the children. Not childish, but child-like. That kind of innocence.

I've been in the entertainment industry since I was six-years-old ... As Charles Dickens says, 'It's been the best of times, the worst of times.' But I would not change my career ... While some have made deliberate attempts to hurt me, I take it in stride because I have a loving family, a strong faith and wonderful friends and fans who have, and continue, to support me.
