More quotes by Julie Andrews
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
I've been blessed to be at the right place at the right time.
Julie Andrews
Sometimes opportunities float right past your nose. Work hard, apply yourself, and be ready. When an opportunity comes you can grab it.
Julie Andrews
I work out as little as I can for as much gain as I can. Yoga and a little bit of ballet -- only 30 or 40 minutes every other day. I keep supple for myself more than for roles.
Julie Andrews
If somebody can act out one of the books as a play, if they can see a play, film, or television show that's related, that can be so stimulating for them. Anything that makes children engage and think - and love what the story is about - can only bring the most enormous rewards.
Julie Andrews
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?
Julie Andrews
The anateur works until they get something right. The professional works until they can't go wrong.
Julie Andrews
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.
Julie Andrews
I don't think today's younger audience... would even know what 1920s musicals were like.
Julie Andrews
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.
Julie Andrews
Of course, you can say it backwards, which is dociousaliexpilisticfragicalirupus, but that's going a bit too far, don't you think?
Julie Andrews
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
My first memoir, 'Home,' was about my childhood, early training and formative years in the Theater, i am so pleased that my good friends at the Hachette Book Group have encouraged me to share the next phase of my life, beginning with my arrival in Hollywood and the wonderful movies and television programs I was asked to be a part of.
Julie Andrews
Beginnings are always hard.
Julie Andrews
These days, people like me who are in the arts are perceived as celebrity writers. That really makes me angry because I expend a great deal of effort and spend an enormous amount of time on my books. And I've been writing now for 35 years.
Julie Andrews
Leave every place you go, everything you touch, a little better for your having been there.
Julie Andrews
Can I give them what they think they're going to get from me? That's always the big question.
Julie Andrews
I don't want to be thought of as wholesome.
Julie Andrews
Don't you get a swollen head. There's always someone who could come and do what you do, maybe even better, so be grateful and work hard.
Julie Andrews
I was raised never to carp about things and never to moan, because in vaudeville, which is my background, you just got on with it through all kinds of adversities.
