[about tabloid magazines] Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on a TV screen doesn't make it factual. To buy it is to feed it.

In their innocence, very young children know themselves to be light and love. If we will allow them, they can teach us to see ourselves the same way.

The world should be full of love. Love. Love is the most important thing in the world.

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

I love to draw-pencil, ink pen-I love art. When I go on tour and visit museums in Holland, Germany or England-you know those huge paintings?-I'm just amazed. You don't think a painter could do something like that. I can look at a piece of sculpture or a painting and totally lose myself in it.

Love transcends international boundaries. It heals the wounds of racial hatred, prejudice, bigotry and ignorance.

When the world is on your shoulder, got to straighten up your act and boogie down.
