Michael Jackson"When I was a kid, I was denied not only a childhood, but I was denied love. When I reached out to hug my father, he didnt hug me back.

When I was scared to go on stage, he said, "get your ass on that stage." … I will never deny a child love. If it means that I have to be crucified or put in jail for it, then thats just what theyre going to have to do."
