Some quotes about Celine Dion and Anne Geddes about "Miracle":

- How the collaboration began?

Anne Geddes: "I first met Celine several years ago, when she was incredibly kind to an eight-year-old girl whom my husband and I were very close to, who has since died of cancer. Celine Dion and I discovered that we have common values, and we both cherish the love that can be expressed in families. Our friendship grew, and we began to talk about how much we would enjoy working together."

Celine Dion: "I think it was meant to be. In my career, which really means my life, I had reached the point where I wanted to add a performance element that would complement my music. The Miracle lullabies and love songs, combined with Anne's images of these beautiful babies, is a unique project that means a great deal to us."

Anne Geddes: "The combination is a perfect blend. We believe that each new life is truly a miracle. It has been a pleasure and a privilege to create Miracle with Celine, whose vocal artistry completely captures our shared love for children."

- About selecting the songs for the Miracle CD:

Celine Dion: "I have to say that another thing that was meant to be is the song, "Who Could Ever Love You More?" that was written for me by the incredible songwriter, Linda Thompson. It was supposed to be on my most recent English recording, but it didn't make it for whatever reason, and was perfect for this project. For the CD, we re-titled it "Miracle" because of the miracle of new life."

Anne Geddes: "I've listened to it countless times... it's always brand new and gorgeous. (To Celine) It could be something to do with your voice."

Celine Dion: "The other pieces we recorded have special meaning to me, and address the deep and universal connection between a mother and child. We chose the other songs, including a favorite lullaby, for the Miracle CD because they express this bond of love so eloquently."

- What would you like people to take from Miracle?

Anne Geddes: "Miracle is my way of sharing the great sense of joy these babies give me, and the awareness of the wonderful potential of each child. All of these babies that Celine has posed with, in truth, all babies, are so very precious, so valuable and deserving of all the loving care and respect we can give them."

Celine Dion: "It's very moving, when you hold an infant and are so close to purity. The best thing to do is enfold them in your arms and show the world that, this is the only thing that matters."
