Jose Carreras Quotations

I'm a very fortunate man. I have in life everything I could dream of.

I have thrown chairs, but only during football matches. Generally, I am well-behaved. I do not like to make people angry.

I have great emotion every time I go on stage. Nothing in life gives me the same satisfaction that my profession gives me.

I carry on singing because I love it. The closer you are to the end, the more you understand how important it is.

I cannot imagine stopping singing. It is so nice that I even do it as a hobby.

I am an optimist and have always been one.

I am a little nervous with strangers. But I'm not tight inside. I think I am impulsive.

Even out of severe difficulty, some positive things come.

Certain things give you another perspective in life.

In recitals, you are naked before the audience - well, naked with your jacket and tails. The audience sees and hears the real person, not some role you are interpreting.
