More quotes by 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
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
My feeling about fears is, if you voice your fears, they may come true. I'm superstitious enough to believe that.
Meryl Streep
Women are the last group anyone cares about in Hollywood.
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
You can have a perfectly horrible day where you doubt your talent... Or that you're boring and they're going to find out that you don't know what you're doing.
Meryl Streep
I'm all over the place.
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.

It's hard to negotiate the present landscape with a brain and a female body.
Meryl Streep
The career I chose was a drama major in college, at Yale, when I played a 90-year-old woman. One of my most celebrated roles. Then I played a really fat person. I played a lot of different things. That's how I thought I loved to wrangle my talent, my need to express myself. I like to do it that way.
Meryl Streep
I think we all think we sound really good in the shower, where there's that nice reverb.
Meryl Streep
How you first meet the public is how the industry sees you. You can't argue with them. That's their perception.
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
Wrinkled, wrinkled little star... hope they never see the scars.
Meryl Streep
If you have a brain, you are obliged to use it.
Meryl Streep
I think that you find your own way. You have your own rules. You have your own understanding of yourself, and that's what you're going to count on. In the end, it's what feels right to you. Not what your mother told you. Not what some actress told you. Not what anybody else told you but the still, small voice.
Meryl Streep
Personality is immediately apparent, from birth, and I don't think it really changes.
Meryl Streep
Chris Cooper is one of my favorite actors in the world. I've seen him in most everything he's done.
Meryl Streep
I once read that in any good marriage, one partner is the gardener and the other is the garden. We take it in turns to be either.
Meryl Streep
Empathy is at the heart of the actor's art.
