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.

More quotes by Julie Andrews
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.

You know, making an animated movie is such a lonesome thing. You mostly don't see your fellow actors or anything. You go into your booth, you record all your dialogue. It's very much an issue of trust. You leave it all up to the director.
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
I think of part of myself as a very passionate person, but I don't think that comes across. I don't know where it comes from, that reserve or veneer of British niceness. But it doesn't bother me if other people don't spot the passion. I know it's there.
Julie Andrews
The anateur works until they get something right. The professional works until they can't go wrong.
Julie Andrews

Julie Andrews
All careers go up and down like friendships, like marriages, like anything else, and you can't bat a thousand all the time.
Julie Andrews
Where the Lord closes a door, somewhere He opens a window.
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
If you're tearing around in a panic about something, then it puts everyone else in a panic as well.
Julie Andrews
Use your knowledge, and your heart, to stand up for those who can't stand, speak for those who can't speak, be a beacon of light for those whose lives have become dark.
Julie Andrews
I think I'm one of the very lucky ladies.
Julie Andrews
You always do that with movie musicals. You prerecord and then you lip-synch to playback.
Julie Andrews
I adored my birth father and constantly worried that I was being disloyal to him and his schoolteacher roots if I spent too much time performing and enjoying it.
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
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
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 don't want to be thought of as wholesome.
Julie Andrews
I've been blessed to be at the right place at the right time.

Broadway is a tough, tough arena for singing.
