People who live in an age of corruption are witty and slanderous; they know that there are other kinds of murder than by dagger or assault; they also know that whatever is well said is believed.

I am bewildered at the length to which people will go to portray me so negatively.

I've seen lawyers who don't represent me and spokespeople who do not know me speaking for me. These characters always seem to surface with dreadful allegations just as another project, an album, a video is being released.

Yeah, "Wacko Jacko". Where'd that come from? Some English tabloid. I have a heart and I have feelings, I feel that, when you do that to me. It's not nice.

I just think that when sex is used as a form of blackmail or power, it's a repugnant use of one of God's gifts.

I'd slit my wrists rather than hurt a child. I could never do that. No one will ever know how much these wicked rumors have hurt me.
