Be humble, believe in yourself, and have the love of the world in your heart.
When you have a special gift you don't realize it because you think everyone else has the same gift.
I'm a gentleman, call me old fashioned if you want.
I respect the secrets and magic of nature. That's why it makes me so angry when I see these things that are happening, that every second, I hear, the size of a football field is torn down in the Amazon. I mean, that kind of stuff really bothers me. That's why I write these kinds of songs, you know. It gives some sense of awareness and awakening and hope to people. I love the Planet, I love the trees. I have this thing for trees, the colors and changing of leaves. I love it. I respect those kind of things. I really feel that nature is trying so hard to compensate for man's mismanagement of the planet. Because the planet is sick, like a fever. If we don't fix it now, it's at the point of no return. This is our last chance to fix this problem that we have, where it's like a runway train. And the times has come, This Is It. People are always saying, 'They'll take care of it. The government. Don't worry, they'll... "They' who? It starts with us. It's us. Or else it'll never be done. We have four years to get it right. After that it would be irreversible. Let's take care of the planet.
I never self-proclaimed myself to be anything. If I called up Elizabeth Taylor right now, she would tell you that she coined the phrase. She was introducing me, I think at the American Music Awards, and said in her own words, it wasn't in the script, "I'm a personal fan, and in my opinion he is the king of pop, rock and soul." Then the press started saying "King of Pop" and the fans started. This self-proclaimed garbage, I don't know who said that.
When I saw him move I was mesmerized. I've never seen a performer perform like James Brown and right then and there I knew that that was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
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.
I am always writing a potpourri of music. I want to give the world escapism through the wonder of great music and to reach the masses.
Love is the human family's most precious legacy. Its richest bequest. Its golden inheritance.
