In essence, I owe my career to Garry Marshall. There was no known reason for him to hire me for 'Pretty Woman.'

We all need to take a deep breath and think about being a Bush daughter and having that cross to bear. I'd go out and have a couple of drinks too.

Something that's such a joy in my life every day - cooking - is this incredible, horrific danger to women around the world.

It's an exceptional time, and it's always the happiest time if you can be really present and doing the things that you want to be doing and surrounding yourself with the people you love. So, yeah, I'm in a good spot right now.
Julia Roberts
-
Because of being married, I've met people and experienced all these little things that have nurtured my life - not so much changed it, just nurtured it in a way that's astounding.
Julia Roberts
-
It's amazing what can happen if you just put your arm around somebody. It's the truest thing and the simplest thing that does the most good a lot of times and I hope that we can all just reach out to each other.

~I try to call my mother, Betty, with more regularity because I think, What if Hazel didn't call me for two weeks? I'm able to see her mothering now from a different vantage point.~
Julia Roberts

I never really did years of movie-after-movie-after-movie but when you've got three toddlers in the house you're performing all day long, anyway, with puppet shows and stories - I act around the clock.
Julia Roberts
-
The older you get, the more fragile you understand life to be. I think that's good motivation for getting out of bed joyfully each day.
Julia Roberts

True love doesn't come to you it has to be inside you.

I wouldn't do nudity in films. For me, personally... To act with my clothes on is a performance; to act with my clothes off is a documentary.
Julia Roberts
-
I think I've always sort of been on the more boyish spectrum of girls. For example, I've never been chosen as 'one of the top-five hottest actresses in a bikini.' And honestly, it's a godsend. When I was younger, I'd think, 'Oh, I'm the prettiest one. It's not Halle Berry. It's not!' But it is, you know?
Julia Roberts
-
I believe that two people are connected at the heart, and it doesn't matter what you do, or who you are or where you live; there are no boundaries or barriers if two people are destined to be together.

When people do bad things intentionally, they know they've done them. But it's not to be cared about. That's the problem with the tabloid press; they dramatize these things until there's a state of frenzy. People see frenzy and they go, "What?" Then they clamor toward the frenzy. We all do it. It's a primal, natural response.
Julia Roberts
-
Real emotion transcends language. You dont have to understand their words to feel their pain.
Julia Roberts
-
I'm too tall to be a girl, I never had enough dresses to be a lady, I wouldn't call myself a woman. I'd say I'm somewhere between a chick and a broad.
Julia Roberts
-
I love romantic comedies. I like to watch them and I like to be in them. It's something that's increasingly difficult to find that spark of originality that makes if different than the ones that come before.
Julia Roberts
-
Show me a mall, and I'm happy.
Julia Roberts
-
I can direct breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I take pride in my kitchen, but I'm not going to direct a movie.
Julia Roberts
-
The kind of energy I attract is very calm.
Julia Roberts
-
If you love someone, you say it, right then, out loud. Otherwise, the moment just passes you by.
Julia Roberts
-
Wit is the key, I think, to anybody's heart, because who doesn't like to laugh?
Julia Roberts
-
I certainly take work as a joyous responsibility.
Julia Roberts

It's very important that we expand our use of clean energy and make a long-term commitment to it. Biodiesel and ethanol are better for the environment and for the air we breathe. The use of biodiesel is a positive step toward minimizing pollutive emissions and greenhouse gases. By focusing on school buses, we can affect the health and wellbeing of the people most susceptible to that pollution - our children - today.
