More quotes by Barbra Streisand
How I wish we lived in a time when laws were not necessary to safeguard us from discrimination.
Barbra Streisand
I go by instinct - I don't worry about experience.
Barbra Streisand
It's very often the artist who gives a voice to the voiceless by speaking up when no one else will.
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 can say, 'I am terribly frightened and fear is terrible and awful and it makes me uncomfortable, so I won't do that because it makes me uncomfortable.' Or I could say, 'Get used to being uncomfortable. It is uncomfortable doing something that's risky. But so what? Do you want to stagnate and just be comfortable?'
Barbra Streisand
I hated singing. I wanted to be an actress. But I don't think I'd have made it any other way.
Barbra Streisand
They're called 'angels' because they're in heaven until the reviews come out.
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.
Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand
I like to stay home a lot. I like to do other things, too, like decorate.
Barbra Streisand
I am a nice person. I care about my driver having lunch, you know.
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
I prefer things that are private, so I love recording and I love making films, as a filmmaker, because it uses every bit of what you have experienced or know, whether it's graphics composition, decorating, psychology, storytelling, or whatever it is. It's a wonderful thing.
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
I don't like talking about myself and I don't like talking about the work.
Barbra Streisand
It’s like an American tradition. A person gets successful and then he’s supposed to change for the worse. It’s silly.
Barbra Streisand
It is every woman's dream to be some man's dream woman.
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 was raised on the streets, in hot, steamy Brooklyn, with stifled air.
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?
