More quotes by Carlos Santana
I am here to give voice to the invisible.
Carlos Santana
The concept is to weave in some emotion.
Carlos Santana
Blues was my first love. It was the first thing where I said, 'Oh man, this is the stuff.' It just sounded so raw and honest, gut-bucket honest. From then I started rebelling.
Carlos Santana
My dad's a beautiful man, but like a lot of Mexican men, or men in general, a lot of men have a problem with the balance of masculinity and femininity - intuition and compassion and tenderness - and get overboard with the macho thing. It took him a while to become more, I would say, conscious, evolved.
Carlos Santana
Bring the brothers home, and sisters home now. Legalize marijuana and take all that money and invest it in teachers and in education. You will see a transformation in America.
Carlos Santana
Disposicion a transformacion personal es clave para Iluminacion Global.
Carlos Santana
Everybody sooner or later has to drop the luggage and the baggage of illusions.
Carlos Santana
I'm laughing because I know the secret of life. And the secret of life is that I have validated my existence. I know that I am worth more than my house, my bank account, or any physical thing.
Carlos Santana
Your wrinkles either show that you're nasty, cranky, and senile, or that you're always smiling.
Carlos Santana
If you stay in your heart you will always be inspired and if you are inspired you will always be enthusiastic. There is nothing more contagious on this planet as enthusiasm.
Carlos Santana
When you are in your heart of hearts, you can see beyond appearances.
Carlos Santana
I invite you, wholeheartedly, to read books that remind you of your highest self and emancipate you from mental slavery or false beliefs and illusions. The more you invest in attracting books that resonate with the frequency of your true self, the more light you will bring to the world.
Carlos Santana
I think of music as a menu. I can't eat the same thing every day.
Carlos Santana
If You're going to sweep the floor, sweep it better than anybody in town. And if You're going to play the guitar, really, really, really get in it, and don't be jivin'.
Carlos Santana
Most people are prisoners, thinking only about the future or living in the past. They are not in the present, and the present is where everything begins.
Carlos Santana
There is divinity in your DNA. Live your light.
Carlos Santana
No one's better than me. I'm not better than anyone. Whether it's Eric Clapton or BB King we look straight at each other. And that keeps it real.
Carlos Santana
I realized that it's all really one, that John Lennon was correct. We utilize the music to bring down the walls of Berlin, to bring up the force of compassion and forgiveness and kindness between Palestines, Hebrews. Bring down the walls here in San Diego, Tijuana, Cuba.
Carlos Santana
I can show you that I have played with just about every jazz musician, every African musician, every blues musician. It's not like I'm cashing in on a false concept. This is what I do.
Carlos Santana
The music of Hendrix wakes people up to their possibilities. It's more than just dreaming about being a guitar hero.
