More quotes by Meryl Streep
For me, clothes are kind of a character. They're more interesting in those terms.
Meryl Streep
Well, I got better after this, and my entire family really did appreciate it. Usually, they're resentful of movies that I go off and make, but this one had a bonus attached. But yeah, she had no breath.
Meryl Streep
Teachers perform major miracles in America, daily.
Meryl Streep
In my own experience of male and female directors, people have a much, much harder time taking a direct command from a woman. It's somehow very difficult for people.
Meryl Streep
The career I chose was a drama major in college, at Yale, when I played a 90-year-old woman. One of my most celebrated roles. Then I played a really fat person. I played a lot of different things. That's how I thought I loved to wrangle my talent, my need to express myself. I like to do it that way.
Meryl Streep
As there begins to be less time ahead of you, you want to be exactly who you are, without making it easier for everyone else.
Meryl Streep
America doesn't reward people of my age, either in day-to-day life or for their performances.
Meryl Streep
I've thought a lot about the power of empathy. In my work, it's the current that connects me and my actual pulse to a fictional character in a made up story, it allows me to feel, pretend feelings and sorrows and imagined pain.
Meryl Streep
You have to embrace getting older.
Meryl Streep
I'm all over the place.
Meryl Streep
Most of the great practitioners of the art of acting know exactly what they're doing even in the best, most successful moments, when they let go of the awareness of what they are doing, they still, somewhere deep inside their body, know what they're doing. There is a craft.
Meryl Streep
Chris Cooper is one of my favorite actors in the world. I've seen him in most everything he's done.
Meryl Streep
I feel very strongly that we make decisions about what we're giving to the world, what we're withholding from the world, by virtue of what we put on our bodies.
Meryl Streep
I like who I am now. Other people may not. I'm comfortable. I feel freer now. I don't want growing older to matter to me.
Meryl Streep
You can't sing when you're upset. You can't sing when you're crying. You get all congested and disgusting.
Meryl Streep
The work will stand, no matter what.
Meryl Streep
Anyone who wants to achieve something, needs a lot of work.
Meryl Streep
I think your self emerges more clearly over time.
Meryl Streep
And it interferes with your ability to be a good actress if you're constantly aware of yourself as a person. To me, it isn't valuable to think about how I'm coming off all the time if I'm trying to create a character, because that's a process that I love. It's like falling in love and surrendering to another person or a character.
Meryl Streep
Some people are filled by compassion and a desire to do good, and some simply don't think anything's going to make a difference.
