More quotes by Pablo Casals
When you play Bach like Chopin, and Chopin like Bach, something good happens.
Pablo Casals
I have always regarded manual labour as creative and looked with respect-and, yes, wonder-at people who work with their hands. It seems to me that their creativity is no less than that of a violinist or painter.
Pablo Casals
To retire is the beginning of death.
Pablo Casals
I don't have hobbies. I have passions.
Pablo Casals
Throughout my career, nervousness and stage-fright have never left me before playing. And each of the thousands of concerts I have played at, I feel as bad as I did the very first time.
Pablo Casals
The most perfect technique is that which is not noticed at all.
Pablo Casals
The only weapons I ever had were my cello and my baton.
Pablo Casals

Resist doing things that have no meaning for life.
Pablo Casals
I am an old man but in many senses a very young man. And this is what I want you to be, young, young all your life.
Pablo Casals
The truly important things in life - love, beauty, and one's own uniqueness - are constantly being overlooked.
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
The cello is like a beautiful woman who has not grown older, but younger with time, more slender, more supple, more graceful.
Pablo Casals
Say things to the world that are true.
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
Music must serve a purpose it must be a part of something larger than itself, a part of humanity.
Pablo Casals
To the whole world you might be just one person, but to one person you might just be the whole world.
Pablo Casals
Yes, it is true. I am a miracle. I am a miracle like a tree is a miracle, like a flower is a miracle. Now, if I am a miracle, can I do a bad thing? I can't, because I am a miracle, I am a miracle. . . .
