More quotes by 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
My friend Quincy Jones says we won our first Grammys together in 1963. I have no recollection. I don't even remember the room. When he showed me the picture, I remembered what I wore. But it's like awards don't mean anything.
Barbra Streisand
I don't know why it is that we need to denigrate, to knock down. It's so sick.
Barbra Streisand
I tell you what I envy about people in love - I'd love it if someone knew me I mean really knew me. What I like what I'm afraid of what kind of toothpaste I use. - Rose Morgan
Barbra Streisand
I don't like the word 'superstar'. It has ridiculous implications. These words - star, stupor, superstar, stupid star - they're misleading. It's a myth.
Barbra Streisand
I'm not weird, just different from people who aren't different.
Barbra Streisand
Why is it people who want the truth never believe it when they hear it?
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
They're called 'angels' because they're in heaven until the reviews come out.
Barbra Streisand
A human being is only interesting if he's in contact with himself. I learned you have to trust yourself, be what you are, and do what you ought to do the way you should do it. You have got to discover you, what you do, and trust it.
Barbra Streisand
I don't enjoy public performances and being up on a stage. I don't enjoy the glamour. Like tonight, I am up on stage and my feet hurt.
Barbra Streisand
Oh God, don't envy me, I have my own pains.
Barbra Streisand
I was raised on the streets, in hot, steamy Brooklyn, with stifled air.
Barbra Streisand
I still like my antique clothes.
Barbra Streisand
I like to stay home a lot. I like to do other things, too, like decorate.
Barbra Streisand
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
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
You have got to discover you, what you do, and trust it.
Barbra Streisand
Stay true to yourself. People respond to authenticity.
Barbra Streisand
I don't like talking about myself and I don't like talking about the work.
Barbra Streisand
