More quotes by Andrea Bocelli
The world is full of many beautiful voices I will perform with many of them. I love women's voices.
Andrea Bocelli
A country that has really resonated with me and I was really impressed with was Israel. I found that the whole country had a very special atmosphere. I was there to perform, but it was one of the few places that I've visited over the years that I had some free time to explore, and I was hugely impressed by all the religious history there.
Andrea Bocelli
I am a very lazy man, so, for me, the dream is to be at home on the chair with my family.
Andrea Bocelli
Listen to what others tell you about your voice. If you're only singing to please yourself, you might as well just sing under the shower. But if you're singing for others, you are reliant on them to ask you to sing.
Andrea Bocelli
My life experience has taught me nothing happens by chance. Even the idea of the ball in a roulette game: it's not chance it ends up in a certain place. It's forces that are at play.
Andrea Bocelli
You can be great only if it is your destiny.
Andrea Bocelli
The feeling of an evolution is a constant for every artist who is pursuing the search of refinement and enlargement of his/her own means of expression.
Andrea Bocelli
A love song must respect the canons of music beauty, entering the fibers of those who are listening. It must make them dream and pleasantly introduce them to the universe of love.
Andrea Bocelli
The fact that I am blind is not what defines my life. It should be of no more interest than my blood type. People wonder if there is a relationship between my lack of sight and the way I sing. But there's no connection.
Andrea Bocelli
Living is dangerous. The important thing is to know the limits.
Andrea Bocelli
I've always known that I was born to sing, ever since I was a child.
Andrea Bocelli
I change the language with which I use my voice. In opera, I know I have an orchestra behind me I have to communicate to people very far from me.
Andrea Bocelli
In my iPod, there are many operas, from A to Z. I have 'Aida' and 'Boheme' and 'Butterfly' and 'Cavalleria'. My passion is for opera, but when I'm in the car, I listen to everything.
Andrea Bocelli
To sing a song is like whispering to a child's ear. It is an art heavily relying on improvisation.
Andrea Bocelli
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.
Andrea Bocelli
More people are listening to opera, and I'm happy - everybody must be given that opportunity.
Andrea Bocelli
I did a pop album, 'Sogno,' in 1999. I think it's important to record another pop album because many people love pop music. By this kind of repertoire, some people can later discover classical music.
Andrea Bocelli
When you sing and people want that you sing, then you can hope to be great.
Andrea Bocelli
In essence, I set myself the objective of doing what I feel is right without having any ambition.
Andrea Bocelli
Even in the most beautiful music there are some silences, which are there so we can witness the importance of silence.
