More quotes by Julie Andrews
When in doubt, stand still.
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
Sometimes opportunities float right past your nose. Work hard, apply yourself, and be ready. When an opportunity comes you can grab it.

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
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
Steadiness is coming up short 19 times and succeeding the twentieth.
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
Where the Lord closes a door, somewhere He opens a window.
Julie Andrews
For the last time, you cannot wear that cropped fleece vest
Julie Andrews
Beginnings are always hard.
Julie Andrews
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.
Julie Andrews
And I think as long as a song has beautiful lyrics, I'm so happy.
Julie Andrews
Success is failing nineteen times and soaring the twentieth.
