“Every day I remind myself of all that I have been given.”
Pavarotti : My World (1995)
Kontext: Every day I remind myself of all that I have been given. … With singing, you never know when you are going to lose the voice, and that makes you appreciate the time that you have when you are still singing well. I am always thanking God for another season, another month, another performance.
“I think a life in music is a life beautifully spent and this is what I have devoted my life to.”
Penso che una vita per la musica sia una vita spesa bene ed è a questo che mi sono dedicato. <br class="br">As quoted at a tribute page on his official website, lucianopavarotti.com (September 2007) http://www.lucianopavarotti.com
