Hey Guys!

I am currently working on a huge Michael project that I will be taking to Forest Lawn this Summer.

Quotes are a huge part of this project.

I was wondering if you guys could post quotes that make you think of Michael or relate to him. Not necessarily quotes by Michael himself or quotes about Michael but quotes that are relevant to him.

Example: I already have a lot from Peter Pan.. Things like "all children, except one, grow up" and "shall we make a new rule of life from tonight:always try to be a little kinder than is necessary."

Things like that that totally remind you of Michael. Quotes about love, death, anything.

Thanks so much!

And mods, if this is in the wrong place or there is already a thread like this feel free to move or do whatever!
 
My Fav Quote from Dancing The Dream:
If you Enter This world knowing you are loved
and you leave the world knowing the same,
then everything that happen in between can be dealt with
 
My favourite quotes reminding me of MJ are:

God has decreed life for you
and He will give another and another and another. (Rumi 1207-1273, transl by Coleman Barks)

No-one looks for stars when the sun is out.
A person blended into God does not disappear
He or she is just completely soaked in God's qualities. (Rumi)

and this japanese haiku by Basho, 1644-1694:

Skylark sings all day
And day not long enough.

Here is a link to the best mj quotes

http://www.mjquotes.com/quotes.htm

and one of my favourites

In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope.
In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort.
In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream.
And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.” ~Michael Jackson
 
^Thanks for that link!

But I am looking more for quotes from other people. Quotes that remind you of MJ. Not about MJ or said by MJ but quotes that remind you of MJ. Ones like myosoti posted...
 
The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this:
A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive.
To him,
a touch is a blow,
a sound is a noise,
a misfortune is a tragedy,
a joy is an ecstasy,
a friend is a lover,
a lover is a god,
and failure is death.


Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create – so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is creating.

~Pearl S. Buck

 
James Blunt - One of the Brightest Stars, always makes me think of Michael :


One day your story will be told.
One of the lucky ones who's made his name.
One day they'll make you glorious,
Beneath the lights of your deserved fame.
And it all comes round.
Once in a lifetime like it always does.
Everybody loves you 'cause you've taken a chance,
Out on a dance to the moon,
too soon.
And they'll say told you so.
We were the ones who saw you first of all.
We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars.
One day they'll tell you that you've changed,
Though they're the ones who seem to stop and stare.
One day you'll hope to make the grave,
Before the papers choose to send you there.

And it all comes round.
Once in a lifetime like it always does.
Nobody loves you 'cause you've taken a chance,
Out on a dance to the moon, too soon.
And they'll say told you so.
We were the ones who saw you first of all.
We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars.
And they'll say told you so.
We were the ones who saw you first of all.
We always knew that you were one of the brightest

An honest man is always a child.
Socrates

One who is injured ought not to return the injury, for on no account can it be right to do an injustice; and it is not right to return an injury, or to do evil to any man, however much we have suffered from him.
Socrates

Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something.
Plato
Education is the best provision for the journey to old age.
Aristotle
Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.
Aristotle

Some people come into our lives and leave footprints on our hearts and we are never ever the same.

If I never met you, I wouldn't like you. If I didn't like you, I wouldn't love you. If I didn't love you, I wouldn't miss you. But I did, I do, and I will.

theres more to the first one.

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people teach our soul to dance. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They leave footprints on our hearts and we are never ever the same.
