You never feel lonely if you're writing, because you're living with all these characters in your head.
Julie Andrews

I've learned a lot of things about myself through singing. I used to have a certain dislike of the audience, not as individual people, but as a giant body who was judging me. Of course, it wasn`t really them judging me. It was me judging me. Once I got past that fear, it freed me up, not just when I was performing but in other parts of my life.

It's lovely that the Hollywood stars are crossing over to Broadway.... There used to be such a dividing line in the country between Hollywood and the theatre and that's just melting away. It's just wonderful right now!

I think family matters to me enormously. In fact, family is the first priority. If my family is good, I can do anything. If they're not, I'm a basket case.

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.

All careers go up and down like friendships, like marriages, like anything else, and you can't bat a thousand all the time.

Of course, you can say it backwards, which is dociousaliexpilisticfragicalirupus, but that's going a bit too far, don't you think?
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
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.

Success is failing nineteen times and soaring the twentieth.

Don't you get a swollen head. There's always someone who could come and do what you do, maybe even better, so be grateful and work hard.

The thrill of being in front of a camera remains exactly the same.

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.

When I start to write, I see my stories as a kind of movie. For instance, I ask myself, What kind of opening do I want for this book?

I'm not singing anymore that is why I am so pleased to be writing. My daughter said, You just found a different way of using your voice.

I don't want to be thought of as wholesome.
