Meryl StreepI believe in imagination. I did Kramer vs Kramer before I had children. But the mother I would be was already inside me.
Meryl StreepEveryone is interesting. Everyone has something unexpected to offer and the job of acting is to pull it out of each other.

Meryl StreepEverything we say signifies; everything counts, that we put out into the world. It impacts on kids, it impacts on the zeitgeist of the time.
Meryl StreepI 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.
