What is beautiful enchants me. I mean not just physical beauty but a wider concept of beauty. There is beauty in poetry and in great musical or singing performances. There is beauty everywhere if you can just see it.
From Andrea Bocelli
My style in Italian is very old-style.
The fact that I am blind is not what defines my life. It should be of no more interest than my blood type. People wonder if there is a relationship between my lack of sight and the way I sing. But there's no connection.
My idol has been Franco Corelli. But every singer can teach you something.
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.
I do not think anyone can ever do anything without the help and will of God.
I am a very lazy man, so, for me, the dream is to be at home on the chair with my family.
I prefer to work for my country in a free and independent way. I was born free, and I want to die free. I am always suspicious of ideology. Instead, I respect men with ideas.
It is the uninvolved parent who has to resort to strictness.
The voice changes very slowly. I keep mine well under control and try with all my might to keep it exactly as it was at the very beginning.
