If you play Bach every day, you are not so alone.
Pablo Casals
Image
The first thing to do in life is to do with purpose what one purposes to do.
Pablo Casals
Image
We ought to think that we are one of the leaves of a tree, and the tree is all humanity. We cannot live without the others, without the tree.
Pablo Casals
Image
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
Image
Don’t be vain because you happen to have talent. You are not responsible for that it was not of your doing. What you do with your talent is what matters.
Pablo Casals
Image
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
Image
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 truly important things in life - love, beauty, and one's own uniqueness - are constantly being overlooked.
Pablo Casals
Image
Every wrong seems possible today, and is accepted. I don't accept it.
Pablo Casals
Image
You do not lose your value or preciousness when you grow to be a adult. You are still that miraculous creation. You must work, we must all work, to make the world worthy of its children.
Pablo Casals
Image
I am a very simple man. I am a man first, an artist second. My first obligation is to the welfare of my fellow man. I will endeavour to meet this obligation through music, since it transcends language, politics and national boundaries.
Pablo Casals
Image
In music, in the sea, in a flower, in a leaf, in an act of kindness... I see what people call God in all these things.
Pablo Casals
Image
The greatest respect an artist can pay to music is to give it life.
Pablo Casals
Image
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. . . .

Image
The only weapons I ever had were my cello and my baton.
Pablo Casals
Image
Let us not forget that the greatest composers were also the greatest thieves. They stole from everyone and everywhere.
Pablo Casals
Image
The situation is hopeless, we must take the next step.
Pablo Casals
Image
Resist doing things that have no meaning for life.
Pablo Casals
Image
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.

To the whole world you might be just one person, but to one person you might just be the whole world.
