I received a beautiful welcome to the world of music. I want to give something back to the younger generation.

I am a very simple person. In spite of all that has happened to me, I have tried to remain the simple person I started out.

I've been buying the same lambrusco from Correggio [a town between Reggio-Emilia and Modena] since 1965.

I think a life in music is a life beautifully spent, and this is what I have devoted my life to.

The reason fat people are happy is that the nerves are well protected.

I want to be famous everywhere.

I am open to everything.
