More quotes by Meryl Streep
Instant gratification is not soon enough.
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
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 think your self emerges more clearly over time.
Meryl Streep
It's bizarre that the produce manager is more important to my children's health than the pediatrician.
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
The interesting thing about being a mother is that everyone wants pets, but no one but me cleans the kitty litter.
Meryl Streep
We all make the mistake thinking that how you look makes you more worthy of love.
Meryl Streep
It's amazing what you can get if you quietly, clearly and authoritatively demand it.
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
Acting is not about being someone different. It's finding the similarity in what is apparently different, then finding myself in there.
Meryl Streep
Having wrinkles is at once strange and exciting.
Meryl Streep

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
I'm older. There's some sort of seniority. As a matter of fact, the seniority ebbs as you get older.
Meryl Streep
Women are the last group anyone cares about in Hollywood.
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
Some people are filled by compassion and a desire to do good, and some simply don't think anything's going to make a difference.
Meryl Streep
I love acting, of course, but being with my husband and my children always brought me the greatest joy and happiness in life.
Meryl Streep
Personality is immediately apparent, from birth, and I don't think it really changes.
