Luciano Pavarotti

Above all, I am an opera singer. This is how people will remember me.

I was an elementary school teacher.

Learning music by reading about it is like making love by mail.

Women ought to be fully guarded by law in all rights of property, labor, profession, etc.; but, roughly stated, the voting population ought to represent the fighting population.

We will discover through our own experience that this precious mind of love is the real wish-granting jewel, because it fulfills the pure wishes of both ourself and all living beings.

We're all just playing our own game. I don't see it as a rivalry. We're just trying to play our best.
