I hope I will always have the chance to play the violin.
I want to do everything. That's my problem. Life is short, and I hate the idea of turning down anything. You never know what interesting experience might happen.
When you play a violin piece, you are a storyteller, and you're telling a story.
There were screaming girls, I had to learn as a blind person how to run to a limousine otherwise they'd take my clothes off and stuff. I thought to myself 'how could this happen?' I mean I could see it, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, but Jose Feliciano? It was a mystery to me.

When I was a kid, I could make music out of anything, whether it be a rubber band, a tin can. Whatever it was I made music out of it and so that was my knack.
Music. It has always showed me that I could do what the other kids couldn't do. So I will keep playing and singing and entertaining, as long as the good Lord lets me. That is my life.

I have very heightened senses - not just my hearing but my sense of smell.
Everyone is my equal, and that is transferred to my music.
I never expected to have such a long career, it's been 52 years.
The only thing I can say to the people of Israel is that I love them and I am a strong ally.
I've been playing in Israel since 1971.
I was a teen idol in Latin America.
I didn't write Feliz Navidad to make a lot of money for me.
I contend that if it wasn't for Jimi, the gadgets we use for electric guitars now wouldn't have happened. He was an inventor, in a sense - as well as being great artist.
God gave me a good voice. I have perfect pitch. I don't sing flat.
I didnt go to the high school prom. Couldn't get a date.
My dream was to be a celebrity, to be on TV like Bob Hope was.
I never knew whether I'd make it as a star but I always wanted to.
I'm a musician first and sight has never had anything to do with it.
