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.

Image
I can't believe 50 years have gone by since that film was released. I blinked and suddenly here I am. We all really felt blessed and as for me how lucky can a girl get. Great music does more than enhance a film, it cements our memories in the film going experience.

I was raised never to carp about things and never to moan, because in vaudeville, which is my background, you just got on with it through all kinds of adversities.
Julie Andrews
Image
It is not enough to reach for the brass ring. You must also enjoy the merry go round.

If you're tearing around in a panic about something, then it puts everyone else in a panic as well.
Julie Andrews
Image
I am an optimistic lady.
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
If you're lucky enough to be able to have therapy -- because I know it's very privileged -- it gets rid of so much garbage and enables you to focus on what's important. When I first went into analysis, my mother was absolutely horrified. She thought I'd be a loony!
Julie Andrews
Image
If you can instill a love of reading in your children, they will be ahead of the curve at school and in their lives in general. Their imaginations will be stimulated. I thank heavens for the father that gave me that to begin with.
Julie Andrews
Image
You always do that with movie musicals. You prerecord and then you lip-synch to playback.
Julie Andrews
Image
My sense of the family history is somewhat sketchy, because my mother kept a great deal to herself.
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
These days, people like me who are in the arts are perceived as celebrity writers. That really makes me angry because I expend a great deal of effort and spend an enormous amount of time on my books. And I've been writing now for 35 years.
