Meryl Streep
Some people hold themselves above the fashion business but are still complicit and fall prey to it.

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
Some men can maintain cragginess and weary masculinity. Women just get old.
Meryl Streep
I would never say don't do acting [to my kids], because I think it is a glorious profession and I am so thankful for everything it has let me express.
Meryl Streep
If you have been touched by the success fairy, people think you know why. People think success breeds enlightenment and you are duty-bound to spread around like manure. Fertilize those young minds!
Meryl Streep
There are wonderfully talented actresses. It's a really rich field. There isn't as rich a field of material.
Meryl Streep
All an actor has, I think, is their heart, really,...that's the place you go for your inspiration. If my heart wasn't filled with them, where would I get stuff? What would I have to express?
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
You can't sing when you're upset. You can't sing when you're crying. You get all congested and disgusting.
