MAXIMILIAN SCHELL NOV, 19 1993
TO: MICHAEL JACKSON (SOMEWHERE ON THIS PLANET)

DEAR MICHAEL, I AM DEEPLY ASHAMED --
FOR THE PRESS, FOR THE MEDIA, FOR THE WORLD -
I don't know you - we met only ONCE on one of those Award-Dinners ("ENTERTAINER of the DECADE") - We shook hands - you were kind and polite - I don't think you knew who I was - HOW SHOULD YOU? OUR WORLDS ARE TOO FAR APART -
(I am more, "CLASSICAL" - minded -) but I looked into your eyes -- THEY WERE KIND -- You are a great artist and I admire you - my little daughter (she is 9½) LOVES YOU! DEEPLY - SHE EVEN WANTS TO MARRY YOU! (-"BUT HE NEVER CALLS ME!") SHE IMITATES YOU ALL THE TIME - and quite well - WE ALL LOVE YOU I would like her more to listen to MOZART - but she loves YOU! AND I RESPECT HER TASTE! -- THAT YOU SURVIVE THIS AVALANCHE OF DIRT THROWN AT YOU - I ADMIRE TREMENDOUSLY - THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU ARE!
GOD BLESS YOU
Maximilian Schell
