Of course there are other prima donnas around. So many of my colleagues, younger ones, are wonderful.

It is the sensation of being tired but having a good feeling, you know, a sensation that you have done it honestly and given all your strength. And it is no matter that you feel like this, because this is what you have to do when you go into this sort of life. This is what I choose.

The moment you say, 'Please, give me a reason for this', then you are being impossible and temperamental.

When a singer truly feels and experiences what the music is all about, the words will automatically ring true.

This has not changed: always like the first time, very, very nervous. But when the music begins, you are in the music, it's a sort of transformation. Your feeling for the music is greater and has nothing to do with your nerves. You go out of yourself.

I am not a person who can do nothing. I get very bored.

I have never felt like a diva!

I try in roles like Salome to sing earthily, but it comes out as sweet-earthy. You know, it's like when someone has a beautiful face: you can do what you want to it, but it's still beautiful.

I've received many awards, but I'm most proud of the ones for my country's music.

I may no longer sing as I did 30 years ago, but what I am doing, I am doing well.
