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
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 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
