More quotes by Pablo Casals

Pablo Casals
I don't have hobbies. I have passions.
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
The love of one's country is a splendid thing. But why should love stop at the border?
Pablo Casals
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
If you play Bach every day, you are not so alone.
Pablo Casals

Pablo Casals

Pablo Casals
As long as one can admire and love, then one is young forever.
Pablo Casals
Bach is the supreme genius of music... This man, who knows everything and feels everything, cannot write one note, however unimportant it may appear, which is anything but transcendent. He has reached the heart of every noble thought, and has done it in the most perfect way.
Pablo Casals
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
Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe a moment that never was before and never will be again.
Pablo Casals
To retire is to begin to die.
Pablo Casals
To retire is the beginning of death.
