More quotes by Glenn Close
I don't think the tabloids find me very interesting.
Glenn Close
I really hope it engenders a lot of conversation because I believe there are a lot of people who put on faces. We all do it, every time we walk out the door. And there are a lot of people who have to hide who they are. And I think this story speaks to that.
Glenn Close
I get bored talking about myself, but I can talk about the work.

Glenn Close
I am extremely shy. I am not happy in crowds of people.
Glenn Close
I've been sacrificing my life for my work for 30 years, and now I want it the other way around. I want to find work that fits into my life and that would be based here.
Glenn Close
And the writers are good in that it's easy to memorize, and good writing has an innate rhythm to it. And I've always felt that it's easier to get in your head than writing that has very kind of mind busting moments.
Glenn Close
I've always felt that an independent film is a film that almost doesn't get made.
Glenn Close
The word diva has a negative connotation.
Glenn Close
As far as the difference for me between television and movies, I really thrill to the pace of television. As exhausting as it can be - there was actually one day when we never went to bed.
Glenn Close
I think having pets helps sensitize people to the natural world.
Glenn Close
Good roles are hard to find no matter what age.
