Andrea Bocelli Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Andrea Bocelli:

Every audience has its character; I like America - they love me. I suffer from stage fright, but in America not so much.

I began when I was a child, because I was born and grew up in a little village. And many people ride the horses. So, it was a big - it has been a big passion for me.

Andrea Bocelli

I think I don't want to use drugs or medicine, so nothing. The only way is to go on stage and to hope.

Andrea Bocelli

'Passione' is a selection of the music moments that have accompanied my youth; a collection of cherished memories, of moments, of fleeting emotions, of sleepless nights.

Andrea Bocelli

Faith has a role to play in life. It is not related to success. It is the other way round. Success is related to faith. Faith comes first.

Andrea Bocelli

Destiny has a lot to do with it, but so do you. You have to persevere, you have to insist.

Andrea Bocelli

I have big, big stage fright.

Andrea Bocelli

I have always felt an excellent rapport ever since my very first concert in Britain at Hampton Court. I have always felt understood. The British understand opera very well.

Andrea Bocelli

I've always known that I was born to sing, ever since I was a child.

Andrea Bocelli

Some years ago I gave a concert in the mountains with snow all around, and that was much colder.

Andrea Bocelli

I'm most impressed by the Russian writers, so I love reading the works of Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky. Another author who has informed the way I think is the French philosopher, Blaise Pascal.

Andrea Bocelli

In my iPod, there are many operas, from A to Z. I have 'Aida' and 'Boheme' and 'Butterfly' and 'Cavalleria'. My passion is for opera, but when I'm in the car, I listen to everything.

Andrea Bocelli

More people are listening to opera, and I'm happy - everybody must be given that opportunity.

Andrea Bocelli

All that counts in life is intention.

Andrea Bocelli

When you sing and people want that you sing, then you can hope to be great.

Andrea Bocelli

When a little more than a teenager, I was a piano-bar pianist in the land where I was born and raised, Tuscany.

Andrea Bocelli

I love eating shabu-shabu in Japan - a kind of beef hotpot. But if you're talking about authentic, traditional food, then Italian cooking is one of the best in the world.

Andrea Bocelli

Now I'm more sure and I feel myself more comfortable singing.

Andrea Bocelli

Because I practice often with my children at home.

Andrea Bocelli

Stage fright is my worst problem.

Andrea Bocelli

I'm quite shy, so I hate seeing my private life splashed over the papers.

Andrea Bocelli

I have always tried to perform the music I love, and I think I am lucky because my preferences are often the ones of the public.

Andrea Bocelli

Success is related to faith. Faith comes first.

Andrea Bocelli

It's true that I suffered a lot, especially when I was younger.

Andrea Bocelli

I try to find some time for my horses. I began when I was a child, because I was born and grew up in a little village. And many people ride the horses. So, it was a big - it has been a big passion for me.

Andrea Bocelli

You can be great only if it is your destiny.

Andrea Bocelli

Losing my sight had nothing to do with my focus on music. My passion for music was already there, so it would be a mistake to give too much significance to my blindness.

Andrea Bocelli

I was a daredevil before, and after I lost my sight I was the same. I loved riding bikes, scooters and horses. I even learned to box. Muhammad Ali is my hero.

Andrea Bocelli

I also always carry my flute. It's very important for me to try to relax when I'm travelling, and playing my flute helps me to unwind.

Andrea Bocelli

I change the language with which I use my voice. In opera, I know I have an orchestra behind me; I have to communicate to people very far from me.

Andrea Bocelli

The voice is something very mysterious. It's difficult to say what is inside a voice that moves people.

Andrea Bocelli

I've always been on the side of science that tries to help man. I play an active part with the foundations I'm involved in. Science gives hope. If it were offered to me? Never say never. But I wouldn't kill or steal to have my sight. My blindness doesn't define my life.

Andrea Bocelli

When you're on stage singing, you're naked. Your voice is something very intimate, and that's why I'm scared every time before I perform. It doesn't matter if I'm singing for a king or a queen or the Pope, it's enough to be in front of anybody. I suffer, but I can't do anything about it.

Andrea Bocelli

People wonder if there is a relationship between my lack of sight and the way I sing. But there's no connection.

Andrea Bocelli

I don't have an extraordinary degree of self-confidence, but I know the gift I have been given from God and I try to share it with as many people as possible. Having a great voice is not a merit. I don't think it is a merit.

Andrea Bocelli

I am a very lazy man, so, for me, the dream is to be at home on the chair with my family.

Andrea Bocelli

Often, I went in love with some friends in school. And, no, I suffered. Only later, things went better.
