He (son Jason) doesn't see me as a (gay) icon, he sees me as his mother who touches his hair too much. No, I love being an icon to anybody. Equal rights, you know?
Barbra Streisand
Image
I don't know why it is that we need to denigrate, to knock down. It's so sick.
Barbra Streisand

When I sing, people shut up.
Barbra Streisand
