Dance Quote by Remo D'Souza
“I was 14-15 when I first saw Michael Jackson dance, and I thought, 'How can he move like that?' I started following him. We didn't have TV in those days, and could access videos on VCR. But who in Gujarat would keep a MJ tape? After a year or so, I knew somebody from Mumbai who got that tape for me.”

![“Michael [Jackson] had paintings of himself at Neverland depicting himself as a knight and surrounded by cherubs and angels. People might think he's an egomaniac, but he's not. It's because the world turned against him.” quote by David LaChapelle](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/136/david-lachapelle-8697_angel_michael-jackson-had-paintings-of-himself_34664.jpg)
