You didn't have to work to keep your fear up, your energy up, or your anxiety. It is all kind of built into the process.
Meryl Streep
Anyone who wants to achieve something, needs a lot of work.

Meryl Streep
Expensive clothes are a waste of money.
Meryl Streep
I've grown up well, partly because there weren't great girls' literature - Nancy Drew, maybe - but there weren't things. So there was Huck Finn and Spin And Marty. The boys characters were interesting and you lived through them when you're watching it.
Meryl Streep
Some people hold themselves above the fashion business but are still complicit and fall prey to it.
Meryl Streep
The progression of roles you take strings together a portrait of an actor, but it's a completely random process.
Meryl Streep
The work itself is the reward, and if I choose challenging work, it'll pay me back with interest. At least I'll be interested, even if nobody else is.
Meryl Streep
I'm all over the place.
Meryl Streep
I love food and I love sex.
Meryl Streep
For me, clothes are kind of character I don't follow fashion or understand trends.
Meryl Streep
Women are the last group anyone cares about in Hollywood.
Meryl Streep
Being an actor lets me be a million different things.
Meryl Streep
They filled our lives so much, the films they were in made us laugh, think and cry. Through their work they shared a piece of our soul. We will miss them with the sadness with which we miss an old friend.
