I remember Michael saying, Rich and famous? Its much better to be just rich. I didnt quite get it to begin with. But hes right. You lose anonymity. I say to my family that youve no idea until you lose it how precious anonymity is. – Julie Walters
I dont know if you can change things, but its a drop in the ocean. – Julie Walters
Everyone comes up to me saying, Cooee, Julie! Hello! as if I know them. Of course I dont bloody know them. Am I flummoxed by it? Sometimes. I think, Ooh, love, go easy. For a time, I did feel this pressure that I had to be funny, but it passes. – Julie Walters
