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.

More quotes by Barbra Streisand
I was a personality before I became a person.
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
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 don't think I'm tough in a so called tough way. I'm tough on myself.
Barbra Streisand
I don't care what you say about me. Just be sure to spell my name wrong.
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
Just imagine how boring life would be if we were all the same. My idea of a perfect world is one in which we really appreciated each other's differences: Short, tall Democrat, Republican black, white gay, straight-a world in which all of us are equal, but definitely not the same.
Barbra Streisand
In the music business, we all do different things, but we sit there and admire other people who can write a song differently or sing differently. It's not so competitive.
Barbra Streisand
For me, one of the most disturbing elements of the right wing's political agenda is that it believes that there is one correct spiritual and moral path for all people to follow. The danger inherent in this is its explicit refusal to accept anyone who happens to lead a different lifestyle, and the condemnation of those who differ.
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
A man who graduated high in his class at Yale Law School and made partnership in a top law firm would be celebrated. But a woman who accomplishes this is treated with suspicion.
Barbra Streisand
The artist as citizen is here to stay.
Barbra Streisand
I don't know why it is that we need to denigrate, to knock down. It's so sick.
Barbra Streisand
I think, is wonderful about growing older, is appreciation for the miracle of existence, of life. I thank God every day. I also do believe that belief and imagination manifests reality. And therefore, even though it took twenty-five years, I did find the house, eventually, and the man I could live with.
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
Oh God, don't envy me, I have my own pains.
Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand
You have got to discover you, what you do, and trust it.
Barbra Streisand
Stay true to yourself. People respond to authenticity.
