Here is Yellow Magpie’s pick of the very best Glenn Close quotes.

‘I think the diva is kind of a cliché. My definition of a diva is somebody whose talent does not match what they’re trying to play, so all this temperament comes out.’

‘With the hugely talented women I’ve worked with or observed, it’s not a question about temperament or ego; it’s a question about getting it right. If they’ve got a reputation for being difficult it’s usually because they just don’t suffer fools.’

‘Celebrity is death – celebrity – that’s the worst thing that can happen to an actor.’

‘I knew the term Stepford Wife, and I knew what that meant. I never read the book, and I think before I started filming I watched the movie. I thought it was very dated.’

‘It’s gotten out of control. It’s taking bigger and bigger names to make smaller and smaller films. I worry that important films without a big name attached won’t get made at all.’

‘The best thing I have is the knife from Fatal Attraction. I hung it in my kitchen. It’s my way of saying, Don’t mess with me.’

‘When they tested Fatal Attraction, the audiences were so upset by her behaviour, they literally demanded her blood.’

‘Acting, to me, is about the incredible adventure of examining the landscape of human heart and soul. That’s basically what we do.’

‘I love the chemistry that can be created onstage between the actors and the audience. It`s molecular even, the energies that can go back and forth. I started in theater. and when I first went into movies I felt that my energy was going to blow out the camera.’
