More quotes by Pablo Casals

Pablo Casals
There is no substitute for work what seems ease of performance comes from the greatest labor.
Pablo Casals

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
I do not think a day passes in my life in which I fail to look with fresh amazement at the miracle of nature.
Pablo Casals
I don't have hobbies. I have passions.
