Sometimes opportunities float right past your nose. Work hard, apply yourself, and be ready. When an opportunity comes you can grab it.

I don't think today's younger audience... would even know what 1920s musicals were like.
Julie Andrews
Image
You always do that with movie musicals. You prerecord and then you lip-synch to playback.
Julie Andrews
Image
Dear Lady Gaga , thank you for the wonderful tribute. Oh my god, it really warmed my heart!
Julie Andrews
Image
Be a part of all that is decent and be an ambassador for the kind of world that you want to live in.
Julie Andrews
Image
On the whole, I think women wear too much and are to fussy. You can't see the person for all the clutter.
Julie Andrews
Image
I'm thrilled in a way because musicals should be preserved. It's mostly unique to America, and they give us so much joy.
Julie Andrews
Image
Words are what make the song. I get a personal vision about what the lyrics are about.
Julie Andrews
Image
All careers go up and down like friendships, like marriages, like anything else, and you can't bat a thousand all the time.
Julie Andrews
Image
As my mother said, I never sprang out of bed with a glad shout! My voice needed oiling and then it took off.
Julie Andrews
Image
So many things that you can ask children hopefully pique their interest and they can design and think for themselves. Having children draw and illustrate what they saw in their minds' eyes during the story is a tremendous teaching aid.
Julie Andrews
Image
I work out as little as I can for as much gain as I can. Yoga and a little bit of ballet -- only 30 or 40 minutes every other day. I keep supple for myself more than for roles.
Julie Andrews
Image
I've never minded being disciplined. I'd always rather have a quiet evening in than go to a wild party. Discipline for me has always been the foundation which leaves me free to fly.
Julie Andrews
Image
I don't think I have the image that say, Judy Garland has, or Bette Davis.
Julie Andrews
Image
I think it's the essence of any film and any stage production - any work where you do work with other people - of course collaboration is hugely important. One does for awhile become family.
Julie Andrews
Image
Feed the body food and drink, it will survive today. Feed the soul art and music, it will live forever.
Julie Andrews
Image
Behaving like a princess is work. It's not just about looking beautiful or wearing a crown. It's more about how you are inside.
Julie Andrews
Image
Success is terrifying. Like happiness, it is often appreciated in retrospect. It's only later that you place it in perspective. Years from now, I'll look back and say, ‘God, wasn't it wonderful.’
Julie Andrews
Image
Use your knowledge, and your heart, to stand up for those who can't stand, speak for those who can't speak, be a beacon of light for those whose lives have become dark.
Julie Andrews
Image
I think of part of myself as a very passionate person, but I don't think that comes across. I don't know where it comes from, that reserve or veneer of British niceness. But it doesn't bother me if other people don't spot the passion. I know it's there.
Julie Andrews
Image
In the old days it was important, but not as important as it is today, to keep making success after success after success. It's terrifying today. You can maybe have one so-so movie but you've got to come back with another that's huge, if possible, and that must be very, very difficult for young talent.
