I studied law, and I was ready to be a lawyer in my country (Italy). Probably it is better for many clients that I changed my direction! But I was happy to study and I was a good student, I finished my studies. And everything that you learn is useful in life.

Probably the first time I left Italy was to travel by train to Lourdes. I went with my mother and my grandmother - who was a very religious person - so it was a pilgrimage of sorts. I remember it as a very intense, but beautiful experience.

A career is like a house: it's made of many bricks, and each brick has the same value, because without any one of them, the house would collapse.

I live for my children, so my number one rule is I won't go away from home for more than two weeks.

Often, I went in love with some friends in school. And, no, I suffered. Only later, things went better.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
I've always been on the side of science that tries to help man. I play an active part with the foundations I'm involved in. Science gives hope.

The world is full of many beautiful voices I will perform with many of them. I love women's voices.
