Julia Roberts

I don’t get angry very often. I lose my temper rarely. And when I do, there’s always a legitimate cause. Normally I have a great lightness of being. I take things in a very happy, amused way.

I don’t have the luxury of sitting around any more. I must have had bags of spare time before I had children, but I don’t know what I did with it and I didn’t appreciate it. But it’s such a terrific trade-off. I don’t have time to get a pedicure, but I sure am happy. Who cares if your feet look bad?

I don’t think I realized that the cost of fame is that it’s open season on every moment of your life.

I enjoy hats. And when one has filthy hair, that is a good accessory.

I had lunch the other day with my niece, Emma, and she said, ‘You’re so smart, Aunt Julia.’ And I wanted to say, ‘I’m not smart – I’m 41! You’re 17!’

I have very smart parents. I feel I learned a lot from both of my parents and life experience.

Julia Roberts

I just have a great life. I know great people. I’ve had great relationships – all different kinds of relationships. I am so lucky to be on the little golden path that led me to all this.

I love romantic comedies. I like to watch them and I like to be in them.

I remember when you could dress for a premiere just by putting on a cute top. Now you have to be perfect and fabulous in every way, or you’re ridiculed.

I think enough cannot be said for what you can discover through literature. So I think that was probably my most valued characteristic as a teenager.
