Forty hours of toiling hard
Can make a tiresome week;
But the work has to be done,

One of the saddest comments I heard Michael Jackson make was when he was being interviewed and he said that his father had never told him that he loved him.
In a speech at Oxford University in March 2001 he spoke very perceptively when he said this:
