Sometimes I'm so sweet even I can't stand it.
Julie Andrews
Image
Can I give them what they think they're going to get from me? That's always the big question.

Success is terrifying. Like happiness, it is often appreciated in retrospect. It's only later that you place it in perspective. Years from now, I'll look back and say, ‘God, wasn't it wonderful.’

Of course, you can say it backwards, which is dociousaliexpilisticfragicalirupus, but that's going a bit too far, don't you think?

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!
Julie Andrews
Image
When in doubt, stand still.
Julie Andrews
Image
After all, children are children no matter their background.
Julie Andrews
Image
As you become older, you become less judgmental and take offense less. But marriage is hard work the illusion that you get married and live happily ever after is absolute rubbish.
Julie Andrews
Image
The anateur works until they get something right. The professional works until they can't go wrong.
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
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?

Dear Lady Gaga , thank you for the wonderful tribute. Oh my god, it really warmed my heart!

It is not enough to reach for the brass ring. You must also enjoy the merry go round.
