... in his own words and in words of those, who knew him
"I know who I am inside and outside, and I know what I want to do. And I will always go with my dreams."
"I´m interested in making a path instead of following a trail, and that´s what I want to do in life - in everything I do."
"I really do wish people could understand me some day."
Michael Jackson
"What one wishes is to be touched by truth and to be able to interpret that truth so that one may use what one is feeling and experiencing, be it despair or joy, in a way that will add meaning to one's life and will hopefully touch others as well."
Michael Jacksonin his book "Dancing The Dream"
"There's only one idol for me. It's Michael Jackson. His attitude, vision of life, innocence and artistic quality gives me inspiration. I try to be like him. I wish I had such great fans."
Aziz Dogdu, Turkish Poet (2002)
“Michael Jackson did something that no one else in history has managed…he connected with people of every level imaginable…all over the world. He seemed to speak to people at their very core and achieved the impossible. He reached people on a deep emotional level. And that is what any great artist or showman dreams of doing. That is why Michael Jackson was so special to me.”
David Blaine,Illusionist
"My goal is to change the world…and to change the world’s consciousness about children, about ecology and the planet, to make it a better place for everybody, starting with the children. That’s the future, really. And, I’ll stick with it forever, until it is done"
Michael Jackson
Transcendence and Legacy:
A summary of the words spoken by eminent professors, thinkers, social critics and historians Dr. Michael Eric Dyson & Dr. CornelWest assessing the legacy, the cultural impact, social and musical influence, and the capacity of an icon to break all barriers possible:
Berry Gordy
Michael Jackson - the most profoundly astonishing person I've ever met in my life (speak Howard Bloom & Dr. Wayne Dyer):
"I´m 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. And I believe that that is the very reason for the existence of art and what I do. And I feel fortunate in being that instrument through which music flows…
hose were exchanged for hard work, struggle and pain and eventually material and professional success. But as an awful price, I cannot re-create that part of my life.
"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."
Michael Jackson's Real Messages:
“When I hear the name Michael Jackson, I think of brilliance, of dazzling stars, lasers and deep emotions. I adore Michael Jackson. I think he is one of the world’s biggest and greatest stars, and it just so happens that he’s one of the most gifted music makers the world has ever known.
What makes Michael more unique may be the fact that all of his accomplishments, his rewards, have not altered his sensitivity and concern for the welfare of others, or his intense caring and love for his family and friends, and especially all the children the world over.
I think Michael is the litmus paper. He is always trying to learn. He is so intelligent and he is alarmingly bright. He is also very curious and wants to draw from people who have survived.
People who have lasted. He’s not really of this planet.
He is filled with deep emotions that create an unearthly, special, innocent, childlike, wise man that is Michael Jackson. I think Michael appeals to the child in all of us, and I think he has the quality of innocence that we would all like to obtain or to have kept.
He has one of the sharpest wits, he’s intelligent and he’s cunning – that is a strange word to use about him, because it implies deviousness and he is one o the least devious people I have ever met in my life – he is honesty personified – painfully honest – and vulnerable to the point of pain.
He is so giving of himself that, at times, he leaves very little to protect the beautiful inner core that is the essence of him. That is the thing that I love so much about him and that makes the world identify with him in the way it does.
Michael Jackson is, indeed, an international favourite for all ages, an incredible force of incredible energy. In the art of music, he is a pacesetter for quality of production, in the vanguard for high standards of entertainment. What is a genius? what is a living legend? What is a megastar? Michael Jackson, that’s all.
And just when you think you know him, he gives you more. . .
I think he is one of the finest people to this planet, and, in my estimation, he’s the true King of Pop, Rock and Soul.”

Man Behind The Myth
“I love you all and we are family. Please, know that: we are a family. We have to bring love back into the world..."
"The Time Has Come…
It is now I see and feel that calling once again, to be part of a music that will not just connect but, make all feel one, one in joy, one in pain, one in love, one in service and in consciousness."
Michael Jackson, 2009
An Instrument Of Nature
Elizabeth Taylor: He is the least weird man I have ever known. He is highly intelligent, shrewd, intuitive, understanding, sympathetic, generous – to almost a fault, of himself.
If he has any eccentricities, it’s that he is like larger than life and some people just cannot accept that or face it or understand it. His talent on stage, why I call him the king of pop, rock, soul, music, entertainment, whatever…
There’s nobody that can come near him. Nobody can dance like that, write the lyrics like that, the music, uh, cause the kind of excitement he does.
Oprah: And what is it, I am going to ask Michael this question later on, but what is it you most want the world to know about him?
Elizabeth: What a wonderful, giving, caring, generous man he is, and how good he is.
Oprah: And he’s funny too.
Elizabeth: Oh, he’s wildly funny.
Oprah: He can crack some jokes, I tell you.
Elizabeth: Yes, but he is a good man.
Michael Jackson - remembering the man and his message:
Michael Jackson
"You know why Michael was so special? He was so decent and so modest and humble"
AttorneySusan YuIn celebration of "Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon"
"Few artists have used their talents to uplift mankind as vigorously as Michael Jackson. Though lean in stature, he stood firmly against social and political forces that seek to diminish the integrity of human spirit. He uplifted individuals struggling to be free. At the sametime his voice spoke a message that went beyond the rights of the individual. Michael reminded us that personal dignity and individual freedom can only be perfected in the warm embrace of human solidarity.
Gerald Campbell
"There are many people who believe Michael Jackson was just a very talented man. I want to tell those people they are wrong. Michael Jackson was a miracle of nature, a unique human being, way ahead of his time, a man who trascended race, gender, age and human limitations.
A man who was a complete paradox but chose to be unapologetically himself, no matter the consequences.
And for that he was so severely hunted down, that slander does not stop even after his death.
Did they break him? Yes, they did, but only his frail human body. The genius, the largest than life aura and his legacy of universal love cannot be broken. As proof, they are still trying and he rises stronger than ever. Years from now, people will know Michael Jackson was the first man of the new world.
The first to live in the truth that
WE ARE ALL ONE."
Mona Lazar

Michael Jackson´s Impact
And Legacy:
"Michael Jackson is more than just an extraordinary, fantastic dancer. He is Music, he is Voice, he is Movement, he is Soul. Gifted beyond words and a timeless gift to humanity".
Dorit Koppel,dancer from Broadway Dance Center
Epitome of Artistry:
"He was, to me, the greatest entertainer of all time. He was a huge inspiration for performers across all music genres. He taught us all how to light up the stage. Wow."
'American Idol' judgeRandy Jackso
"Michael Jackson's legacy will live as long as there is life in music. Arguably the greatest entertainer in the world. Amazing live shows, so many smash hits! So much talent! An enigma of a man. He was an icon and a legend. The man was a true superstar that left you staring at him in awe if you ever got the chance to see him. He would leave you starstruck. This man touched so many lives through his talent, energy and his art. He contributed to so many good causes and paved the way for many artists. He inspired millions of people including me. I personally believe our souls or energy can never die so death is not something I mourn. I celebrate his life and will miss his enigmatic energy on our planet in the form of the the King of Pop -- Michael Jackson. Thank you for everything!!"
Mams Taylor, Iranian musician
"I believe MJ was chosen by God to change a generation, bring them into their calling and break racial barriers and color lines. His work has opened doors for so many to achieve their hearts desires!!! Thank you Michael for being my greatest artistic inspiration!
Keeley "LockN' Key" Kaukimoce, dancer
Eternal Love:
"Even in the distance, your legacy and compassion is a gift to the world. Your music inspired me to give, feel and dream. No time will be long enough to forget you, no gossip will be evil enough to break you. I will see you again and we'll dance on the sky. May your inspiration help us change the world into a world with true peace, love and tolerance. We are part of you, you are part of us, you will forever be my music hero."
Edwin Fion,dancer
"There is no question that Michael Jackson is one of the greatest talents the world has ever known. That when he sang a song at the ripe old age of eight he could make you feel like an experienced adult was squeezing your heart with his words. That when he moved he had the elegance of Fred Astaire and packed the punch of Muhammad Ali. That his music had an extra layer of inexplicable magic that didn't just make you want to dance but actually made you believe you could fly, dare to dream, be anything that you wanted to be. Because that is what heroes do and Michael Jackson was a hero."
"Michael Jackson? He was something more (than one of my favorite entertainers), a true friend. He wasn't just a genius. Above all, he was a good person, who gave so much. He gave people values, he encouraged them to better themselves all the time. He was far deeper and more authentic than people could see. He was misunderstood too many times.”
Kobe Bryant
"Michael Jackson was one of the nicest, kindest people I’ve ever met. He really wanted to do more than just be a musical genius. He wanted to heal and change the world through love, through kindness, through art and through music and I do believe the world’s a better place because he was with us.
He was very gentle, very kind. There was, I sort of describe it as a universal Michael and Michael the individual. There was the universalist Michael who wanted to change the globe. Wanted to see the entire world focus on children and he felt that if children were properly loved and cared for that we would significantly reduce the violence in the world, significantly reduce the meanness in the world, significantly reduce poverty, and all of the world’s most important problems.
He felt that the way to do that was to focus on the world’s children. So that’s the universalist Michael who thought he could heal the world through music, through love, through humanitarian measures. He was one of the greatest humanitarians in world history. He actually is in the Guinness Book of Records as one of the largest donors to children’s causes, which the media doesn’t like to focus on.
.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
Thomas Mesereau, Michael´s attorney from 2005
“I wish the world could know the real Michael. Michael always said that if you talked about the good you did in the world, you cancelled the beneficence of the gift, so he was very private about his humanitarian work. Nobody will ever know how much he did for this world and for the children. The world will never know what it lost, because they took Michael from his work and that cheated not just him of his future, but it cheated all of us."
David Nordahl, artist
"There is no one in the world like MJ! Never has been! Never will be! We all know him in one way or another. In some way he has touched us, been the voice of one of our sweetest memories. And what a wonderful, genuine, compassionate, soft spoken giant so full of love. He gave us love, excitement, one of a kind moments in a mundane world. I can't believe he won't be with us here on earth anymore. But long from now, when we are all dust, he will still never be forgotten ... To the best that ever did it! You are loved, admired and respected forever"
Alicia Keys
“Michael Jackson was clearly a man ahead of his time, and perhaps, out of sync with it through no fault of his own. His wisdom often fell upon deaf ears because he offered large thoughts to small minds.”
Chris Kohler
"He was gentle, generous, and remarkably talented. He had a moral code that was unusual in the music industry."
BradSundberg
"Time tells the story of history. Each moment is somehow a living memory of what is and what has been. Together we connect to love. Each of us sharing ourselves with the world. Inside each breath, inside each song is a story. Our story.“
Michael Jackson, audio from the HIStory website from the 90´s twitter.com/MichaelMagic8/status/1188934361690857478?s=20

“He was this musical genius with this childlike innocence. He was such aprofessional, and such a sweetheart.”
Eddie Van Halen
"Indeed, in Jackson´scase he literally embodied the music. It charged through him like an electric current. He mediated it through every means at his disposal - his voice, his body, his dances, films, words, technologyand performances. His work was multi-media in a way never before experienced."
Joe Vogel, TheMisunderstood Power of Michael Jackson´s Music
Michael Jackson
"Rarely has the world received a gift with the magnitude of artistry, talent, and vision as Michael Jackson. He was a true musical icon whose identifiable voice, innovative dance moves and stunning musical versatility. A 13-time Grammy recipient, Michael´s career transcends musical and cultural genres and his contributions will always keep him in our hearts and memories."
Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy
"He loved people deep in his soul. And he was doing music, it was for us."
"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."
Michael Jackson
“The more I’ve studied Michael Jackson and his work, the more convinced I am that he was a man of tremendous courage and deep psychological insight, fiercely committed to social change, wryly funny even during the most difficult times, and an artist to the very core of his being. He was everything in terms of art, and the transformative power of art. We have no unmediated access to the world, we can only access the world through our senses and perceptions, and art has the ability to challenge and change those perceptions. That is a tremendous power and Michael Jackson understood that better than any other artist of his time. He developed an artistic response that challenges our most fundamental beliefs about race and identity, and has changed us and our culture in ways we have not yet begun to measure. He developed an artistic response that shakes the foundations of perception itself, and challenges some of our basic assumptions about how we see, interpret, and make sense of the world. That is the work of a powerful artist."
M. Poetica
"I think one of the coolest things he told me was never limit yourself; the fact that if people can whistle your songs then they can understand it all over the world. Because there are language barriers...People speak different languages all over the world. Melody is king and I think Michael really understood that...What we didn't lose is his legacy and that incredible catalogue and body of work...We may have lost the man, but we didn't lose the legacy. The legacy is actually bigger than that one human being. That legacy touched millions."
LL Cool J
Jeff Young
"There are two kinds of people in this world: Michael Jackson fans and losers.”
Seth Green
"We owe him an honest view of who he was. We will owe him that until we finally sweep away the crap of sensationalist headlines and clearly see why those who love him know more about him than any expert or journalist who claims to have probed his life. Those journalists and experts do not know Michael Jackson. But if you love him, there´s a good chance that you do."
Howard Bloom
"The reality is Michael Jackson's humanity is so deep, the implications and inferences of his art so monumentally and magnificently global, that nothing American television could do to besmirch his character could ever, if you will, deny the legitimate genius that he represents."
From a conversation on Tavis Smiley on Michael Jackson's cultural and social impact
