Johnny Mathis

• "I also met, early on Ella Fitzgerald. Her songbooks are some of the most amazing bodies of work.“
• "Sometimes being famous gets in the way of doing what you want to do.“
• "I think there are a lot of people who really want to be famous, they really do. I don't. It sort of gets in the way of the everyday things that I do.“
• "It's very much like opera singers. They do the same thing. The first thing in the morning and the last thing at night, the thing they think about is their voice and how to take care of it.“
