More quotes by Meryl Streep
You can be afraid in a press conference, nervous, sweaty, but you can't be afraid when you do your work because it doesn't work that way.
Meryl Streep
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
While I am overwhelmingly proud of work that I, believe me, did not do on my own, I can assure you that awards have very little bearing on my own personal happiness, my own sense of well-being and purpose in the world.
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
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!

The work itself is the reward, and if I choose challenging work, it'll pay me back with interest. At least I'll be interested, even if nobody else is.
Meryl Streep
America doesn't reward people of my age, either in day-to-day life or for their performances.
Meryl Streep
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
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
I really worked very hard to bring my voice back because I used to have a good voice, and to try to do my exercises that I remember from Yale and all the things in the olden days, clearing your sinuses and all that.
Meryl Streep
Obsession is an attractive thing. People who are really, really interested and good at one thing and smart are attractive, if they're men.
Meryl Streep
For me, clothes are kind of a character. They're more interesting in those terms.
Meryl Streep
I have a holistic need to work and to have huge ties of love in my life. I can't imagine eschewing one for the other.
Meryl Streep
We need art as much as we need good works. You need it like food. You need it for inspiration to keep going on the days that your low. We need each other in that way.
Meryl Streep
What makes you different or weird, that's your strength.
Meryl Streep
For me, clothes are kind of character I don't follow fashion or understand trends.
Meryl Streep
Personality is immediately apparent, from birth, and I don't think it really changes.
Meryl Streep
Enough people write about me every day without even interviewing me.
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.
Meryl Streep
I never give any character I play less respect than I give my own life.
Meryl Streep
