A Quote by Meryl Streep

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

Beauty Actress Any Character Confidence Felt Like Still Young

Born: June 22, 1949

I guess I'm the perfect young lead actress. I'm not Chloe Sevigny - I'm not really a character actress. Some actors have "character" faces.

Berenice Bejo

I didn't really feel like I fit any of the parts. You either have to be this crazy beautiful supermodel lady, or you're a real character actress. I felt like I had to write things for myself, so I started doing that.

Kay Cannon

If I could pick any character from any game to represent me it would be Ryu from 'Street Fighter.' He's so cool and walks with so much still confidence.

Ser'Darius Blain

I think that is a really good message, especially for young girls to hear. The fact that someone like me from the western suburbs of Sydney could become an actress in movies who didn't look like a regular actress, and that I can make it I think gives a lot of hope to other girls who are really creative and don't necessarily follow the standard of what some people consider beauty to be.

Rebel Wilson

I felt that if I'm serious about acting, I would like people to see me as an actress. It's less of a stretch if I'm singing, unless I'm playing a character who sings.

Natalie Cole

My job as the actress playing Hanna Schmitz, as the actress playing any part, is to understand the character, and to ultimately love the character. And I did love Hanna, absolutely, because I understood her as profoundly as I did at the end of the day.

Kate Winslet

You could say I'm a character actress. Or maybe a character actress who does peculiar, interesting lead roles.

Imelda Staunton

When I was young, I was very blessed to have this insight that my best work would be when I was an older actress. I just always knew that as a young actress.

Betty Buckley

There was no such person as Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn Monroe was an invention of hers. A genius invention that she created, like an author creates a character. She understood photography, and she also understood what makes a great photograph. She related to it as if she were giving a performance. She gave more to the still camera than any actress-any woman- I've ever photographed.

Richard Avedon

My parents have worked their asses off their whole entire lives, they still do, and I never felt like anything would be handed to me. I never felt sorry for myself. I felt like, "Wow, this is incredible. I'm able to do this for myself." I think once you have that sense of empowerment at a young age and you allow your children to have that empowerment, it will fuel them for a lifetime.

Michelle Monaghan

I always felt completely confident - it's like in a feature film, knowing your principle character is extremely well-cast. I had that same confidence in Clive [Oppenheimer].

Werner Herzog

You could say I'm a character actress. Or maybe a character actress who does peculiar, interesting lead roles. Does that make sense?

Imelda Staunton

I think people are always like, 'She's a model-turned-actress.' And I don't want to turn actress. I want to do both. I wouldn't have built the confidence to do acting if I didn't model.

Dree Hemingway

I am a character actress. Well, let's say, I am a leading character actress who does interesting, odd parts.

Imelda Staunton

I really always felt that I was going to be an actress. I had a lot of confidence in the fact that I would do well from a very early age. I didn't know how tough the business is.

Susan Lucci

We desire to possess a beauty that is worth pursuing, worth fighting for, a beauty that is core to who we truly are. We want beauty that can be seen; beauty that can be felt; beauty that affects others; a beauty all our own to unveil.
