Meryl Streep

"You just have to keep on doing what you do. It's the lesson I get from my husband. He just says keep going. Start by starting."

"The interesting thing about being a mother is that everyone wants pets, but no one but me cleans the kitty litter."

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

"There are wonderfully talented actresses. It's a rich field. There isn't as rich a field of material."

"I'm thrilled when I get nominated. I don't count how many and I don't remember how many I've had. I just know it's a lot."


"I didn't have any confidence in my beauty when I was young. I felt like a character actress, and I still do."

"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 you're low. we need each other in that way."

"Interestingly, young people don't come to you for advice. Especially the ones who are related to you."

"You don't have to be famous. You just have to make your mother and father proud of you."

"Motherhood has a very humanizing effect. Everything gets reduced to essentials."

"You can't get spoiled if you do your own ironing."

"Instant gratification is not soon enough."
