“In my own life, I have noticed when I have been meeting directors, that the same sentence with the same inflection can be said by a man, like: "Get me this." But if the same thing is said by a woman, it's seen as harsh and unacceptable. That always fascinates me.” IfsMenHas BeensSaidMy OwnDirectorsMeetingsSentencesHarshMy Own Life Author:Meryl Streep

“My own lov'd light, That very soft and solemn spirit worships, That lovers love so well--strange joy is thine, Whose influence o'er all tides of soul hath power, Who lend'st thy light to rapture and despair; The glow of hope and wan hue of sick fancy Alike reflect thy rays: alike thou lightest The path of meeting or of parting love-- Alike on mingling or on breaking hearts Thou smil'st in throned beauty!” WellsHeartSoulLightJoySpiritMy OwnPathInfluenceStrangeLoversMoonDespairWorshipSickMeetingsFancyRaysTidesSolemnPartingRaptureHeart BreakHueMinglingLovers Love Author:Charles Robert Maturin
“I basically drew my own family. My father's name is Homer. My mother's name is Margaret. I have a sister Lisa and another sister Maggie, so I drew all of them.

“A lot of people ask, "What do you pull on in your own life from your character?" In all honesty, it's not something that really works that way for me. I tend to look at these things as an imaginative process and a challenge of imagination and empathy, to some degree. I get much more out of meeting people who have lived these lives than I do digging around in my own limited experiences.” PeopleWayLooksCharacterAsksProcessImaginationChallengesMy OwnHonestyDegreesEmpathyMeetingsImaginativeDigging Author:Edward Norton
“When I first came to America, I went into William Morris Endeavor for a meeting and I was like, "Yeah, I'm from Australia and I do comedy." I think that one of the reasons they signed me is because I wasn't like any other girl. Maybe girls don't get encouraged. The ones who get encouraged to move to Hollywood are the prettiest ones in their hometown of Iowa, or something. Whereas for me, where I come from in the western suburbs of Sydney, no one ever thought professional actors would come from there. Even my own family was like, "No one would want you on a show."” ThinkingWantFirstsReasonShowsAmericaMovingGirlActorsMy OwnComedyHollywoodYeahMeetingsWesternAustraliaEndeavorSuburbsHometownSydneyIowaOther GirlPrettiestMorris Author:Rebel Wilson
