An opera singer is like an athlete before a match. An athlete cannot overdo anything. In order to perform at the highest possible level, you need to refrain from activities so as to be able to express this power.

More quotes by Andrea Bocelli
It's true that I suffered a lot, especially when I was younger.
Andrea Bocelli
When I began singing, it was the first time I was happy in my life. As a baby, I would stop crying when I heard a great singer.
Andrea Bocelli
When you sing and people want that you sing, then you can hope to be great.
Andrea Bocelli
If you have a great love of singing, supported by others' fondness for your voice, then it is worth making every effort, of making every sacrifice, to achieve your goal. A great voice will easily find teachers who are willing to help a struggling young talent, and the ways of the Lord are infinite.
Andrea Bocelli
I also always carry my flute. It's very important for me to try to relax when I'm travelling, and playing my flute helps me to unwind.
Andrea Bocelli
I listen to music every day for study reasons, and I confess that I have very little knowledge of what is going on in the hit parades around the world. I have no prejudices for any kind of music genre, and I listen with pleasure to many songs on the radio that my children already know of by heart, while I hear them practically for the first time.
Andrea Bocelli
You have to have great passion, because to sing operatic music requires lots of work. I study for at least two hours every day. The voice is like an instrument and requires constant exercise.
Andrea Bocelli
I am a product of my native land, Tuscany, Italy.
Andrea Bocelli
People are often quite surprised by the sport and leisure activities practised by the blind. For example, tandem cycling is very popular.
Andrea Bocelli
Very often, I recognize many, many defects, so I try to improve myself every day. I think my voice is very communicative.
Andrea Bocelli
For me, the most enjoyable type of singing is opera. It allows you to move, to wear a costume ... to do something with your body. When singing in concert you have to stand up in front of the audience, next to the conductor, which is less natural.
Andrea Bocelli
I consider the voice a gift from the heavens, and as all the gifts from the heavens, they must be used, but the minute that the heavens call it back then of course I will stop.
Andrea Bocelli
Success is related to faith. Faith comes first.
Andrea Bocelli
I prefer to work for my country in a free and independent way. I was born free, and I want to die free. I am always suspicious of ideology. Instead, I respect men with ideas.
Andrea Bocelli
I am honored I have performed 'Quizas Quizas Quizas' with Jennifer Lopez, an eclectic artist who thanks to the charismatic power of her voice and to her soft sensuality, has managed to make this song particularly convincing.
Andrea Bocelli
I am not only fighting against something, I am fighting for something - and I am for life.
Andrea Bocelli
In singing, you cannot 'cheat' if you want to give emotions to those who are listening. You must have something to tell.
Andrea Bocelli
I loved riding bikes and horses. I was eight when I started having lessons, and when my father bought me my own horse I couldn't wait to go off on my own.
Andrea Bocelli
It is not Christian to go against someone. I am in favour of life.
Andrea Bocelli
Music is able to make a person dream. When you dream, you dream of something good, something beautiful, and when you dream, you always dream of yourself better than you are.
Andrea Bocelli
