Singing Provides A True Sense Of Lightheartedness.

I Have Had The Good Fortune Of Being Able To Sing With Many Of The Finest Voices In The World, And For Someone Who Loves Voices As I Do, This Is An Enormous Privilege.

I Think I Don't Want To Use Drugs Or Medicine, So Nothing. The Only Way Is To Go On Stage And To Hope.

A Voice Is Very Intimate. It's Something Of Your Own. So There's Always This Fear, Because You Feel Naked. There's A Fear Of Not Reaching Up To Expectations. As You Become More Famous, People Come And Expect To Hear Something Extraordinary, So You Don't Want To Disappoint Them. I Feel This Sense Of Responsibility.

Success Is Related To Faith. Faith Comes First.

The Fact That I Am Blind Is Not What Defines My Life. It Should Be Of No More Interest Than My Blood Type. People Wonder If There Is A Relationship Between My Lack Of Sight And The Way I Sing. But There's No Connection.
