How dare one act like a diva when you have a lot of work to do and you need to find your disciplines and so on?
Quote by -Julie Andrews
In my early years, I was much too ignorant and didn't realize how desperately important it all is, how really important the lyrics are. And for me as a singer, I am a lady who takes the lyrics first.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I'm just honored that some of my little contributions I've written with my daughter are doing well.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I am a liberated woman. And I do believe if a woman does equal work she should be paid equal money. But personally I am feminine and I do like male authority to lean on.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I have always wished I could learn to be a potter. I love collecting ceramics; it would be so fulfilling to create something lovely.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
Our first visit to the Creature Shop is one of the days I will never, ever forget. There was just so much to see and admire and be gobsmacked by.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
As a rule, my focus is on classical music, but I love jazz. I love everything, actually.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
Almost every morning when I go to the studio to work, I discover a fresh rose in the bud vase on my dressing table... one living and vital thing in a dusty arena of powder and tissue and matches and greasepaint.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
My mum gave me pretty good genes in that department. She had gorgeous skin. That good English complexion. She never seemed to have a blemish that I knew of.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
When I did 'The Sound of Music' and 'Mary Poppins' and 'The Americanization of Emily,' all three were in the can and had not yet been released. So I was driving around having a fine time learning about how to make movies and enjoying myself enormously, and then they were released, and it was quite an assault, in a way.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
In my life, it would probably be giving birth to my daughter. That probably is the most, the thing that moved me the most, was the most memorable, the most wonderful, the most miraculous. I think a lot of women would probably feel that way, too.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
There's nothing like the joy of the arts, and promoting the arts early in children is going to give them such a start in life in a way.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
Actually, what I did, because I couldn't make sense of it, and I have to have lyrics that make sense, I decided the best way to sing 'I Have Confidence' was to go completely nuts with panic and fear.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I miss singing with an orchestra because that's the most uplifting thing that I ever knew. It is just such a fabulous feeling.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
There is one thing I should say, and it's important: Young Broadway singers and anybody who is an orator of any kind - lawyers who have to speak in court or pastors or anyone who has a lot of stress on their vocal cords: You should do the maintenance. You should do whatever it takes to feel fresh and good.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I did 'My Fair Lady' for almost 3 1/2 years, eight performances a week. It was a marathon.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
You'd think, of course, it's about the melody - that's a given. But really, I'm no good at singing a song unless it has a good lyric.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
If you're not educated to enjoy the arts, if you're not taken to a concert, or you don't hear something beautiful, you don't know what you're missing.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
Touring itself - and I was very young, and a lot of it I did by myself - it's lonely, but it does give you some kind of spine, I think. It does give you some kind of grit.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I really feel very blessed, and I don't forget it, either; there's an awful lot of wonderful talent in this world, and I just seem to be in the right place at the right time.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I think I'm just proudest to be the lady who was asked to play Mary Poppins. She's such a wonderful character, and there's so much tremendous talent out there. So I feel very lucky to be the one who got to play her.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
Who would have thought that a story about a professor of phonetics would result in it being probably one of the great shows ever for musical theatre? It's a seemingly odd subject.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
My parents were in Vaudeville, in musical. And I would tour with them and had a couple of wonderfully lucky breaks in England.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
Every time I go out to perform, believe me. You never lose that fear of, 'I hope I do it right. I hope I don't fall flat on my face. I hope this will be good for them.'
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I have been called a nun with a switchblade where my privacy is concerned. I think there's a point where one says, that's for family, that's for me.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
Let me put it this way: I can sing a hell of an 'Old Man River,' way down in the bass.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
My sense of the family history is somewhat sketchy, because my mother kept a great deal to herself.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I did a lot of touring in my youth, and I learnt very quickly that giving is what it's all about. It's about the gift of making an audience feel great and forget their cares, if only for a few hours.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I think that the best way to explain that is that my mother gave me all the color and character and flare and liveliness, and my father gave me all the sanity and nature and all the things that helped me be a more rounded human being.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
When you are traveling in vaudeville, you experience so many different kinds of audiences, depending on what time of the week it is, how long the pubs have been open, and things like that.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
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.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
'Simeon's Gift' is really - it's about a musician who - in the Middle Ages, who goes out to find his muse.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
The loveliest roles, for me, have a growth arc - a beginning, a middle, and an end - and I'm always grateful when I can find one of those emotional journeys.
Quote by -Julie Andrews
I had no education whatsoever, and my mother said, 'Oh, you'll get a much better education in life.' I did to some extent, though I always wish I could have tried it.
