Quote

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.

Image
I always feel like I can't do it, that I can't go through with a movie. But then I do go through with it after all.
Meryl Streep
Image
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
Image
I would say, don't smoke. I'm kidding, but yeah, I did smoke in college and as a young actor and it's stupid.
Meryl Streep
Image
I couldn't care less about fashion. If I had taken any clothes home, they would have remained in my closet for the rest of their existence.

The formula of happiness and success is just, being actually yourself, in the most vivid possible way you can.

Everything that truly makes us happy is quite simple: love, sex, and food! Everything else - power, influence, strength - all those things can overpower what's important in life.

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
Image
Life is all about making choices and I'm very happy with mine. I have had a wonderful time raising four children and I've also been lucky to have the support of a wonderful husband.
Meryl Streep
Image
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
Image
Acting is being susceptible to what is around you, and it's letting it all come in. Acting is a clearing away of everything except what you want and need - and it's wonderful in that way. And when it's right, you're lost in the moment.

Image
Being an actor lets me be a million different things.
Meryl Streep

The work will stand, no matter what.
Meryl Streep

Integrate what you believe in every single area of your life. Take your heart to work and ask the most and best of everybody else, too.
Meryl Streep
Image
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
Image
I'm older. There's some sort of seniority. As a matter of fact, the seniority ebbs as you get older.
Meryl Streep
Image
I think the best role models for women are people who are fruitfully and confidently themselves, who bring light into the world.
Meryl Streep
Image
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
Image
I follow no doctrine. I don't belong to a church or a temple or a synagogue or an ashram.
Meryl Streep

Every single decision I make about what material I do, what I'm putting out in the world, is because of my children.
