More quotes by Barbra Streisand
A human being is only interesting if he's in contact with himself.
Barbra Streisand
. . . it is true, even people with painful childhoods. . . grow up to be more interesting people. So, there's always a positive to a negative.

The audience is the barometer of the truth.
Barbra Streisand
I'm not weird, just different from people who aren't different.
Barbra Streisand
I believe in love and lust and sex and romance. I don't want everything to add up to some perfect equation. I want mess and chaos. I want someone to go crazy out of his mind for me. I want to feel passion and heat and sweat and madness. I want valenties and cupids and all of that crap. I want it all.
Barbra Streisand
They're called 'angels' because they're in heaven until the reviews come out.
Barbra Streisand
You have got to discover you, what you do, and trust it.
Barbra Streisand
I go by instinct - I don't worry about experience.
Barbra Streisand
Part of our society kills what it loves, despises what it's created. It really hates success.
Barbra Streisand
I don't know why it is that we need to denigrate, to knock down. It's so sick.
Barbra Streisand
Directing is so interesting. You know, it just sort of encompasses everything that you see, that you know, that you've felt, that you have observed.
