More quotes by Meryl Streep
The work will stand, no matter what.
Meryl Streep
Wrinkled, wrinkled little star... hope they never see the scars.
Meryl Streep
I never look a gift horse in the mouth. And I've been really, really lucky. I'm aware of that. And my career has been given to me by the people I've worked with, no question. The actors, the directors, the cinematographers, the writers, all of whom gave me the opportunity to work in the way that I have and I'm really grateful.
Meryl Streep
I love acting, of course, but being with my husband and my children always brought me the greatest joy and happiness in life.
Meryl Streep
And she [Margaret Thatcher] also had a sort of a way, like a railroad train, of going, taking a breath and starting quite quietly and making a point in a way that you don't really know that this point is going to be made through several examples, and there will be not be a break in the speaking voice at any point.
Meryl Streep
When I was younger I spent way too much time thinking about me being too fat. So stupid.
Meryl Streep
When criticism comes your way as an actor they are not criticizing your writing or your painting or your piece, they are criticizing you! It is hard to put that away in a place where you are not hurt.
Meryl Streep
I am not always happy. I am happy in front of the press. I can be extremely grumpy, ask my husband.
Meryl Streep
This is your time and it feels normal to you, but really, there is no normal. There's only change and resistance to it and then more change.
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
Young people who learn the arts do better in every phase of their lives.
Meryl Streep
On every film, the clothes are half the battle in creating the character. I have a great deal of opinion about how my people are presented. We show a great deal by what we put on our bodies.
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
I just take every day is a miracle and I'm really glad that I'm still working and that people are not sick of me, even though even I'm sick of me a little bit.
Meryl Streep
I'm older. There's some sort of seniority. As a matter of fact, the seniority ebbs as you get older.
Meryl Streep
There have been directors that I did not enjoy working with, but for the most part I realize that I have been unbelievably spoiled in my career because I have worked with some of the greatest, greatest directors ever.
Meryl Streep
I think your self emerges more clearly over time.
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
You're not supposed to speak ill of the dead, but Earl Blackwell finally died, and I was on his blacklist every year for being the worst dressed person.
Meryl Streep
One must be brave if one is to take the wheel.
