Silence

More quotes by Wade Robson

I said what I understood and I said what I was able to say.

'I'm never going to go away with this for the sake of money. I'm never going to be silenced for money. That's not going to happen.'

'I have never forgotten one moment of what Michael did to me, but I was psychologically and emotionally completely unable and unwilling to understand that it was sexual abuse.'

'And then he would follow it up with, "but if you ever tell anyone what we are doing both of our lives and careers would be over"'.

'And for the first time in my life, I began to realize that my completely numb and unexplored feelings about what Michael did to me might be a problem and maybe I need to speak to somebody about it.'
