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.

So many things that you can ask children hopefully pique their interest and they can design and think for themselves. Having children draw and illustrate what they saw in their minds' eyes during the story is a tremendous teaching aid.

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.

I don't think I have the image that say, Judy Garland has, or Bette Davis.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Image
I think it's the essence of any film and any stage production - any work where you do work with other people - of course collaboration is hugely important. One does for awhile become family.
Julie Andrews
Image
All careers go up and down like friendships, like marriages, like anything else, and you can't bat a thousand all the time.

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.

If you're tearing around in a panic about something, then it puts everyone else in a panic as well.
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 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.

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.

You always do that with movie musicals. You prerecord and then you lip-synch to playback.

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