Itzhak Perlman
A Century of Wisdom is universal and will enrich readers for generations to come.
Itzhak Perlman
Every person with a disability has a slightly different kind of disability. Not everybody has the same problems. Usually the wheelchairs are the wheelchairs. It's the same height and so on. It's a problem.
Itzhak Perlman
Sometimes it is the artist's task to find out how much music you can still make with what you have left.

Itzhak Perlman
I look at raising funds for The Perlman Music Program as a challenge and as a way to provide opportunities for people who care about the future of classical music.
Itzhak Perlman
I feel that you always pay when you are a child.
Itzhak Perlman
I can actually see the sound in my head. I can actually see it... But each sound is different so this one has that sparkle, there is a sparkle to the sound.
Itzhak Perlman
Life is not as easy as it could be for a person with a disability.
Itzhak Perlman
I listen to kids play a lot.
Itzhak Perlman
Everybody has a different kind of talent and a different timetable as to when they develop.
Itzhak Perlman
I don't walk on stage unless I'm playing with a orchestra. But when I play a recital, I'm sort of on a scooter, and I just scoot very quickly on stage, and they're saying, wow, look at this. He's so fast.
