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
How you first meet the public is how the industry sees you. You can't argue with them. That's their perception.

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
I never give any character I play less respect than I give my own life.
Meryl Streep
We all make the mistake thinking that how you look makes you more worthy of love.
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 am not always happy. I am happy in front of the press. I can be extremely grumpy, ask my husband.
Meryl Streep
Every easy choice will have its consequence tomorrow.
Meryl Streep
Yeah, I did need a lot of breath [to play Margaret Thatcher]. I needed much more breath than I have, after all of my expensive drama school training. I couldn't keep up with her.
Meryl Streep

Meryl Streep
I have a lot to say about the world, clearly. I can't put together a clear sentence about it all, but through the work I can say what I think.
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.
