More quotes by Barbra Streisand
My mother never really thought I could become anything.
Barbra Streisand
I'm a work in progress.
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 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 think when I was younger, I wanted to be a star, until I became a star, and then it's a lot of work. It's work to be a star. I don't enjoy the stardom part. I only enjoy the creative process.
Barbra Streisand
It is every woman's dream to be some man's dream woman.
Barbra Streisand
I like to stay home a lot. I like to do other things, too, like decorate.
Barbra Streisand
My mother told me I should be a secretary, but I wanted to be an actress from when I was very young.
Barbra Streisand
I must have got my detailed, obsessive streak from my father, who was an English teacher, because my mother wasn't like me at all.
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
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 only began to sing because I couldn't get a job as an actress.
Barbra Streisand
We cannot let the right wing roll back more than thirty years of social progress.
Barbra Streisand
New York critics - I hear when one of them watched A Star Is Born, he talked back to the screen.
Barbra Streisand
A human being is only interesting if he's in contact with himself.
Barbra Streisand
I don't care what you say about me. Just be sure to spell my name wrong.
Barbra Streisand
I never sing in the shower either.
Barbra Streisand
Everybody's frightened a bit. But how many of us just go through the fear and do it anyway?
Barbra Streisand
How I wish we lived in a time when laws were not necessary to safeguard us from discrimination.
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
