I was lucky enough to be the lady that was asked to be Maria in the Sound Of Music, and that film was fortunate enough to be huge hit. The same with Mary Poppins. I got terribly lucky in that respect.

More quotes by Julie Andrews
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
You never feel lonely if you're writing, because you're living with all these characters in your head.
Julie Andrews
Words are what make the song. I get a personal vision about what the lyrics are about.
Julie Andrews
I don't think I have the image that say, Judy Garland has, or Bette Davis.
Julie Andrews
The music and lyrics of Rodgers & Hammerstein connect seamlessly. Singing those beautiful songs was a joyous experience for me, and one that I will never forget.
Julie Andrews
I've been blessed to be at the right place at the right time.
Julie Andrews
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
I don't think today's younger audience... would even know what 1920s musicals were like.
Julie Andrews
Feed the body food and drink, it will survive today. Feed the soul art and music, it will live forever.

I do think, where would kids be if it weren't for you and for the good pediatricians, and for the good parents? I passionately believe in sitting a child on your lap and tracing the lines of the book with your finger, and they can read before they know they can, if you bother enough. I did it with my kids, and they're doing it with their kids now.
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.
Julie Andrews
Miracles are happening every day. I do think that's true. If you can take the time to look. It took me a while to learn that, though some children know it instinctively and they do have wonder when they are kids. But the trouble is, as we grow older, we lose it.
Julie Andrews
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
My husband knows me better than anyone.
Julie Andrews
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
I'd like to be an original, to be myself and not a pale copy of anyone else.
Julie Andrews
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious! If you say it loud enough you'll always sound precocious. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

It is not enough to reach for the brass ring. You must also enjoy the merry go round.

Public libraries are our great teachers and storytellers, and are a vital adjunct to our schools. In this day of standardized and homogenized education, a library offers individual and personalized learning opportunities second to none.

I have always wished I could learn to be a potter. I love collecting ceramics it would be so fulfilling to create something lovely.
