Meryl Streep and her Momma way back in ‘81. ♥
“My mother really did inspire me. My mother had an enormous influence on me, because we were so not alike. But I really wanted to be like her. She was someone who had that kind of Joie de Vivre. And when she would come into the room, she’s just like a light bulb coming on. So she was an inspiration. Because she told me: Meryl, you can do anything you wanna do, because you’re capable. And that seems like a very small thing, but capable is great - it means you can put your hands on something in your life, and fix it, make it, do it. And, I, you know.. a lot of things she told me went out of my head.. like what not to do. But that one remained and I tried to make my own children feel that way.” —  Meryl Streep ♥
