I want to have time for myself, my family and my friends. It's important because in order to sing well, you must have inspiration, and inspiration comes from life, from living.

More quotes by Andrea Bocelli
I studied to be a lawyer, and after that I did something, obviously, completely different. With change, you learn something. If you do the same thing over and over again, you never learn anything.
Andrea Bocelli
In preparing my thesis, I have had the pleasure of collecting testimonies from colleagues such as Placido Domingo but also from singing teachers and musicologists. The entire course of study has confirmed what I already thought, that the value and meaning of opera singing, at the beginning of the third millennium, remain intact.
Andrea Bocelli
What is beautiful enchants me. I mean not just physical beauty but a wider concept of beauty. There is beauty in poetry and in great musical or singing performances. There is beauty everywhere if you can just see it.
Andrea Bocelli
Opera singing is in every way of inestimable value a real heritage for all mankind that has been reached over centuries of studies, attempts, flights of the spirit.
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
More people are listening to opera, and I'm happy - everybody must be given that opportunity.
Andrea Bocelli
The themes I sing about tend to be centered on love, but in the most total, general way 360 degrees of love.
Andrea Bocelli
When the mood takes me, I like to be a man of action. I like to windsurf and ski, and most of all I love to ride horses. The wilder and faster the better!
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
When a little more than a teenager, I was a piano-bar pianist in the land where I was born and raised, Tuscany.
Andrea Bocelli
'Passione' is a selection of the music moments that have accompanied my youth a collection of cherished memories, of moments, of fleeting emotions, of sleepless nights.
Andrea Bocelli
My idol has been Franco Corelli. But every singer can teach you something.
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
The activity of a singer that sings opera is similar to that of an athlete.
Andrea Bocelli
Some years ago I gave a concert in the mountains with snow all around, and that was much colder.
Andrea Bocelli
Stage fright is my worst problem.
Andrea Bocelli
It's always beautiful to sing with other great voices. I like voices in general. It's a big privilege to have great singers next to me.
Andrea Bocelli
I always knew I would sing. I just didn't know if I would be successful or not. But I sang at school, I sang at parties, I sang at church. Everyone always asked me to sing. I'd be playing football with my friends and my parents would ask me to sing for their guests. I was never very happy about that because I wanted to play football.
Andrea Bocelli
Classical music and pop are two different universes, each with its own difficulties, peculiarities, depth and artistic dignity. In Italy, I think there is a fairly clear line of demarcation, but the history of music is full of fusion. Popular and classical music have always found points of contact, of crossing, exchange, both drawing mutual profit.
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.
