After all, children are children no matter their background.
Julie Andrews

I've been blessed to be at the right place at the right time.
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 miss singing very, very much, but the best thing is I have never been busier.
Julie Andrews
Image
Words are what make the song. I get a personal vision about what the lyrics are about.

Broadway is a tough, tough arena for singing.
Julie Andrews
Image
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.

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!

Sometimes I'm so sweet even I can't stand it.

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!

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
Image
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.

I'd like to be an original, to be myself and not a pale copy of anyone else.
Julie Andrews
Image
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.
Julie Andrews
Image
The thrill of being in front of a camera remains exactly the same.
Julie Andrews
Image
The anateur works until they get something right. The professional works until they can't go wrong.
Julie Andrews
Image
My husband knows me better than anyone.

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.
Julie Andrews
Image
For me, singing was always about the lyrics. I'm hopeless at singing songs that don't have a core.

On the whole, I think women wear too much and are to fussy. You can't see the person for all the clutter.
