Pablo Casals
If you play Bach every day, you are not so alone.
Pablo Casals
The most perfect technique is that which is not noticed at all.

I see in the melody of Nature, God. It is a wonderful work of art. The spirit of the art is wonderful. And I feel that I am myself because I have never taken music lightly. Music is the manifestation of God, like everything else.
Pablo Casals
When you play Bach like Chopin, and Chopin like Bach, something good happens.

Let us not forget that the greatest composers were also the greatest thieves. They stole from everyone and everywhere.
Pablo Casals
The love of one's country is a splendid thing. But why should love stop at the border? There is a brotherhood among all men. This must be recognized if life is to remain. We must learn the love of man.
Pablo Casals
Say things to the world that are true.
Pablo Casals
