I am a very superstitious person.

The better voice doesn't mean being a better singer.

If I could live my life over again, there is one thing I would change. I would want to be able to eat less.

If your body is not in shape to sing [from the diaphragm] you will push and push but keep falling back on your throat to make the sound. This will ruin your voice.

If you know why you fall in love, you aren't in love

There is no prodigy in our profession. If you see all the great singer of the past, none of them are.

Opera is a beautiful and important diversion for me.
