More quotes by Glenn Close

Image
I think there are certain actors that have that kind of energy about them, that taking over a room energy.
Glenn Close
Image
Good roles are hard to find no matter what age.
Glenn Close
Image
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
Image
It is an odd paradox that a society, which can now speak openly and unabashedly about topics that were once unspeakable, still remains largely silent when it comes to mental illness.
Glenn Close
Image
I don't have the body or the face for romantic comedies, so I've never been offered those. The challenge is that a lot of people see you only as your last character, so you're constantly competing with whatever your last movie was.
Glenn Close
Image
I grew up with a house full of dogs. My mother was a great nature lover and taught us to have almost a religious sense of respect for the natural world.
Glenn Close
Image
It always amazes me to think that every house on every street is full of so many stories so many triumphs and tragedies, and all we see are yards and driveways.
Glenn Close
Image
I love histories. I love learning. I love books that talk about people who made a real impact on history, because it always has to do with who they were at that time and what their personalities were like and what their strengths and weaknesses were.
Glenn Close
Image
Taking power away from a man is a dangerous thing. Someone always pays.
Glenn Close
Image
The word diva has a negative connotation.
Glenn Close
Image
And those moments that I find mind busting. Meaning like there's a word that I find in a weird place. I love the process of going to the writer and working that out, because that's just basic communication.
Glenn Close
Image
Just play the moment, that's the fun of it. You just play the moment. It's great writing and very clever writing, I think it's witty. And I have those great clothes. You have a great, witty, intelligent script and you look like a million dollars, because we have a great costumer, and it's a pretty good place to begin.
Glenn Close
Image
I think the diva is kind of a cliche. My definition of a diva is somebody whose talent does not match what they're trying to play, so all this temperament comes out.
Glenn Close
Image
What's so fascinating about people is what they don't show. People are masters at it usually actors show too much.
Glenn Close
Image
People think that the ocean is big enough to sustain anything we throw at it - its hard to get into your head that it's actually finite.
Glenn Close
Image
I get bored talking about myself, but I can talk about the work.
Glenn Close
Image
All great art comes from a sense of outrage.
Glenn Close
Image
When you're playing a man, you can look tired and horrible and you still look okay. As a woman, if you're tired, it's terrible. It was such a luxury not having to worry about that.
Glenn Close
Image
And when you're with a great crew like we had, it becomes a thrilling, again, collaboration, which is to me one of the great aspects of the process that you go through. I find myself at this point in my career, getting potentially, incredibly bored if I stand around a lot, so that's why I really like the pace of television.

As an actor, I go where the good writing is. That's the bottom line.
