I miss singing very, very much, but the best thing is I have never been busier.
Julie Andrews
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
Quite often I'll turn on the television and something like Sound of Music will be on or Victor/Victoria and I might watch a moment or two. But I don't actually sit down and say I'm going to watch one of my movies.
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.

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.

I've never minded being disciplined. I'd always rather have a quiet evening in than go to a wild party. Discipline for me has always been the foundation which leaves me free to fly.

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.

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

Be a part of all that is decent and be an ambassador for the kind of world that you want to live in.

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

Beginnings are always hard.
Julie Andrews
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.

Success is failing nineteen times and soaring the twentieth.
Julie Andrews
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.

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.

I would be a fool to deny my own abilities.

Singing has never been particularly easy for me.
