Placido Domingo

I will prove that a great conducting career is expecting me.

Don't you think it astonishing that, at 58, I am still working at improving my career?

This circus games aspect has existed since the beginning of my career.

Should it happen tomorrow, I would fall to my knees to give thanks to God for such a career.

It is strange, but nobody is shocked when pop singers make a fortune in the space of two years.

My strength is my enthusiasm.

Honestly, if the public still wants to hear me in some works, I have to go down a half step.

Let us be clear: I take ten times more money for a concert than for an opera performance.

The press regularly proclaims my ambitions and my financial demands.

I was married at 16, a father at 17 and divorced at 18.

When a young artist is ready, one has to bring him into the limelight.

I feel like a little boy who is constantly offered new toys.
