More From Maria Callas
- "There must be a law against forcing children to perform at an early age. Children should have a wonderful childhood. They should not be given too much responsibility."
- "Women are not pals enough with men, so we must make ourselves indispensable. After all, we have the greatest weapon in our hands by just being women."
- "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."
More In Strength
- "Naturally we are aware of the strength of our economy and naturally we don’t want to downplay it."― Gerhard Schroder
- "Blind and unwavering undisciplined at all times constitutes the real strength of all free men."― Alfred Jarry
- "Greatness lies, not in being strong, but in the right using of strength; and strength is not used rightly when it serves only to carry a man above his fellows for his own solitary glory. He is the greatest whose strength carries up the most hearts by the attraction of his own."― Henry Ward Beecher
