After all, children are children no matter their background.
Julie Andrews
Image
Leave every place you go, everything you touch, a little better for your having been there.
Julie Andrews
Image
I've got a good right hook.
Julie Andrews
Image
Have you noticed how nobody ever looks up? Nobody looks at chimneys, or trees against the sky, or the tops of buildings. Everybody just looks down at the pavement or their shoes. The whole world could pass them by and most people wouldn't notice.
Julie Andrews
Image
I think that the best way to explain that is that my mother gave me all the color and character and flare and liveliness, and my father gave me all the sanity and nature and all the things that helped me be a more rounded human being.

Feed the body food and drink, it will survive today. Feed the soul art and music, it will live forever.
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.

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
I am very proud to be British. I'm very conscious of carrying my country with me wherever I go. I feel I need to represent it well.
Julie Andrews
Image
I don't think today's younger audience... would even know what 1920s musicals were like.
Julie Andrews
Image
You never feel lonely if you're writing, because you're living with all these characters in your head.
Julie Andrews
Image
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
Success is failing nineteen times and soaring the twentieth.
Julie Andrews
Image
All I care about really is writing something worthwhile for children, something that will engage them in some way and stimulates in them a sense of wonder.
Julie Andrews
Image
Sometimes opportunities float right past your nose. Work hard, apply yourself, and be ready. When an opportunity comes you can grab it.
Julie Andrews
Image
I feel an enormous responsibility to bridge the gap between England and America, and be a sort of very quiet ambassador for my country to try to sort of do a hands across the water thing where they understand England and English people understand Americans. I adore America.
Julie Andrews

And I think as long as a song has beautiful lyrics, I'm so happy.
