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.

More quotes by Meryl Streep
The progression of roles you take strings together a portrait of an actor, but it's a completely random process.
Meryl Streep
It's hard to negotiate the present landscape with a brain and a female body.
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.
Meryl Streep
Having been let out of the barn once, I know I wouldn't be happy if I were home all the time.
Meryl Streep
For me, clothes are kind of character I don't follow fashion or understand trends.
Meryl Streep
If you have a brain, you are obliged to use it.
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
Some men can maintain cragginess and weary masculinity. Women just get old.

Meryl Streep
No one has ever asked an actor, 'You're playing a strong-minded man.' We assume that men are strong-minded, or have opinions. But a strong-minded woman is a different animal.
Meryl Streep
When they called my name, I had this feeling I could hear half of America going, 'Oh no. Come on... Her, again?' You know. But, whatever.
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
Sometimes with my children, I remember exactly how I felt as the child in this situation, not just how it feels to be me.
Meryl Streep
One of the most important keys to acting is curiosity. I am curious to the point of being nosy. What that means is you want to devour lives. You're eager to put on their shoes and wear their clothes and have them become a part of you. All people contain mystery, and when you act, you want to plumb that mystery until everything is known to you.
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 feel like I run a business although I haven't one. It's planning, planning, and planning.
Meryl Streep
She [Barbra Streisand] was just - we can't know what we mean to each other. You know, artists, you can't know - you can't know that, but she was really important.
Meryl Streep
My feeling about fears is, if you voice your fears, they may come true. I'm superstitious enough to believe that.
Meryl Streep
You can't get spoiled if you do your own ironing.
