More quotes by Andrea Bocelli
Criticism in good faith is good. When it's targeted solely to destruction, I'm not interested.
Andrea Bocelli
Like stars across the sky, we were born to shine.
Andrea Bocelli
I don't like crying. I'm a country boy, and we're the product of our upbringing. As a boy, I was told that men don't cry.
Andrea Bocelli
I do not think anyone can ever do anything without the help and will of God.
Andrea Bocelli
A voice is very intimate. It's something of your own. So there's always this fear, because you feel naked. There's a fear of not reaching up to expectations. As you become more famous, people come and expect to hear something extraordinary, so you don't want to disappoint them. I feel this sense of responsibility.
Andrea Bocelli
I have had the good fortune of being able to sing with many of the finest voices in the world, and for someone who loves voices as I do, this is an enormous privilege.
Andrea Bocelli
I have a European frame of mind and Europe is my home.
Andrea Bocelli
Fatherhood is a very natural thing it's not something that shakes up my life but rather it enriches it.
Andrea Bocelli
Every audience has its character I like America - they love me. I suffer from stage fright, but in America not so much.
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
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
I first started playing in piano bars for three reasons - to make money, to be in the company of my friends - and also to hook up with young girls. I always knew, even before I played in piano bars, about the effect of my voice.
Andrea Bocelli
A positive frame of mind will definitely enhance your travelling experience. If I'm not in a positive frame of mind then the whole thing definitely becomes more of a challenge for me.
Andrea Bocelli
I'm most impressed by the Russian writers, so I love reading the works of Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky. Another author who has informed the way I think is the French philosopher, Blaise Pascal.
Andrea Bocelli
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.
Andrea Bocelli
Some of us are born with a weakness for music. As a baby, music would stop whatever thought I was having. If I was worried, it would stop me worrying if I was crying, it would stop me crying. Music was a healing thing for me.
Andrea Bocelli
Opera is complex for those who perform it, but also for those who listen to it. It takes more time, more patience and more spirit of sacrifice. All this is well worth it because opera offers such deep sensations that they will remain in a heart for a lifetime.
Andrea Bocelli
Music is a prerogative of those who are willing to spend time to study it, understand and love it, well aware of the fact that one life is not enough to improve just one single note of what has already been written and performed.
Andrea Bocelli
When you sing and people want that you sing, then you can hope to be great.
Andrea Bocelli
