I will always be as difficult ...

I will always be as difficult as necessary to achieve the best,

My poor sight gives me an adva...

My poor sight gives me an advantage. I can't see the people in the audience who are scratching their heads while I am lost in my role and giving everything I have to the drama.

Maria Callas 66 quotes

Real friends are very special,...

Real friends are very special, but you have to be careful because sometimes you have a friend and you think they are made of rock, then suddenly you realise they're only made of sand.

Maria Callas 66 quotes

Don't come to me with your tro...

Don't come to me with your troubles. I have to work for my money and you are young enough to work too. If you can't make enough money to live on you can jump out of the window or drown yourself.

Maria Callas 66 quotes

Some say I have a beautiful vo...

Some say I have a beautiful voice, some say I have not. It is a matter of opinion. All I can say, those who don't like it shouldn't come to hear me.

I want to be a mature artist with a different kind of thinking.

Maria Callas 66 quotes

I belong to the givers. I want...

I belong to the givers. I want to give a little happiness even if I haven't had much for myself. Music has enriched my life and, hopefully - through me, a little - the public's. If anyone left an opera house feeling more happy and at peace, I achieved my purpose.

Maria Callas 66 quotes

An opera begins long before th...

An opera begins long before the curtain goes up and ends long after it has come down. It starts in my imagination, it becomes my life, and it stays part of my life long after I've left the opera house.

An opera begins long before the curtain goes up and ends long after it has come down. It starts in my imagination, it becomes my life, and it stays part of my life long after I've left the opera house.

When music fails to agree to the ear, to soothe the ear and the heart and the senses, then it had missed the point.

When the curtain rises, the only thing that speaks is courage.

When music fails to agree to the ear, to soothe the ear and the heart and the senses, then it has missed the point.

Maria Callas 66 quotes

That is the difference between good teachers and great teachers: good teachers make the best of a pupil's means; great teachers foresee a pupil's ends.

Don't talk to me about rules, dear. Wherever I stay I make the goddam rules.

Maria Callas 66 quotes

You are born an artist or you ...

You are born an artist or you are not. And you stay an artist, dear, even if your voice is less of a fireworks. The artist is always there.

I prepare myself for rehearsals like I would for marriage.

I would like to be Maria, but there is La Callas who demands that I carry myself with her dignity.
