More quotes by Barbra Streisand
I like simple things. Elastic waists, so I can eat.
Barbra Streisand
When I was working a lot, I felt guilty as a parent. I couldn't pick up my son every day from school, bake him cookies and that kind of thing.
Barbra Streisand
I have one son. Of everything I've done in my life, nothing matches the feeling of having life growing inside you.
Barbra Streisand
Oh God, don't envy me, I have my own pains.

I think of myself as a girl from Brooklyn.
Barbra Streisand
I still like my antique clothes.
Barbra Streisand
I don't know why it is that we need to denigrate, to knock down. It's so sick.
Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand
I'm a work in progress.
Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand
It is every woman's dream to be some man's dream woman.
Barbra Streisand
Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and then complain that he's not the man she married?
Barbra Streisand
I hear these melodies. I hear horn lines and string lines. That's what's fun about recording with an orchestra.
Barbra Streisand
What reaches an audience is honesty. If you're saying something truthful that's supposed to be a funny line, it's going to be funny. And if it's supposed to be a serious line, it's going to be serious. But, I don't think there's a distinction between how you play drama or comedy, if it's based in the truth.
Barbra Streisand
We have a president who stole the presidency through family ties, arrogance and intimidation, employing Republican operatives to exercise the tactics of voter fraud by disenfranchising thousands of blacks, elderly Jews and other minorities.
Barbra Streisand
Issues of foreign policy have a place in every election for President.
Barbra Streisand
I was a personality before I became a person.
Barbra Streisand
If I hear a record once, I usually never listen to it again. I rarely listen to music - unless it's Billie Holiday.
Barbra Streisand
