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.

More quotes by Julie Andrews
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?
Julie Andrews
You always do that with movie musicals. You prerecord and then you lip-synch to playback.
Julie Andrews
I suppose partially because of the success of the early movies and things like that, I began to realize, that children do look up to you in some way, and there is a responsibility for how you behave with them. I know that it's important to make them feel very valuable, not to talk down to them.
Julie Andrews
For me, singing was always about the lyrics. I'm hopeless at singing songs that don't have a core.
Julie Andrews
You know, making an animated movie is such a lonesome thing. You mostly don't see your fellow actors or anything. You go into your booth, you record all your dialogue. It's very much an issue of trust. You leave it all up to the director.
Julie Andrews
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
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!
Julie Andrews
Broadway is a tough, tough arena for singing.
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
I think I'm one of the very lucky ladies.
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
Mary Poppins is magical and fun.
Julie Andrews
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
Feed the body food and drink, it will survive today. Feed the soul art and music, it will live forever.
Julie Andrews
Where the Lord closes a door, somewhere He opens a window.
Julie Andrews
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.
Julie Andrews
Hopefully, I brought people a certain joy. That will be a wonderful legacy.
Julie Andrews
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
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
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
