Lindsay Duncan : (4) " I have the highest regard for Meryl Streep as an actress and think she’s a fabulous person as well. " - Lindsay Duncan " I would rather give up acting than become world famous, because I think you pay a very high price. Writing and putting new plays out into the world has informed what I do, and I’ve had a lot more freedom to play really interesting parts. " - Lindsay Duncan " I do feel almost violent when I’m watching things that I don’t think are good enough. I get furious for the audience. I want to say to them, ‘This play is not supposed to be like this. They’ve got it completely wrong. You should be electrified by this.’ " - Lindsay Duncan " That kind of creaming off the pretty postcard image of the past, I think, is a road to nowhere. " - Lindsay Duncan
