Julia Roberts Quotes

Getting the Oscar had the biggest impression on me.

I've won several Emmys, a Tony and a Grammy, so maybe somebody will let me have an Oscar, and then I'll have a full set.

I am still the same person doing the same science. Why are people so impressed when some academy in Sweden gives an award?

I don't have any artifacts of my profession in my house; the Oscar is in storage.

It would mean a lot, but it's weird, because what's the title? It's an extra line on your Wikipedia page and a medal that says you won on that particular night. It obviously symbolizes more than that, but those are the things people think about.

Nothing would disgust me more, morally, than receiving an Oscar.

Fame is like the dessert that comes with your achievements - it's not an achievement in itself, but sometimes it can overpower the work.

I'm not aiming for an Academy Award.

Entertainer of the Year, to me, there's never been any question that that's one on my bucket list that I want. I'm not going to sit here and lie to you. If there's one that I ever could get - I would trade all the rest of them in for that one.

I knew I'd made it when my face appeared on a stamp.

My drum sticks are in the 'Hall of Fame.' I know that.

It surprised me, the feeling I got when I won the Oscar for 'Scent of a Woman.' It was a new feeling. I'd never felt it. I don't see my Oscar much now. But when I first got it, there was a feeling for weeks afterward that I guess is akin to winning a gold medal in the Olympics.

Awards don't really mean much.

I hope I can make Pakistan proud by bringing home an Oscar.

I've never been one to chase awards or anything like that, to be honest.

Awards are meaningless to me, and I have nothing but disdain for anyone who actively campaigns to get one.

It's nice to walk into a club and see your picture. Then you know you've done something good.

I do not care for the money, just for the glory.

I've been nominated for Academy Awards, I know what I'm doing.

A lot of people like to live on laurels that happened 20 or 30 years ago, but it's nice to get awards. It's nice to be labeled and things like that, but I'm not sure everybody qualifies.

One person seeking glory doesn't accomplish very much.

Some people work hard in this business and become really popular, really big stars but they never receive an award from within the business. Somehow, when your colleagues and friends believe in you to the point of handing you an award it means so much more.

Along with success comes a reputation for wisdom.
