Quote

The idea of a liberal media bias is simply a myth. If only it were true, we might have a more humane, open-minded, and ultimately effective public debate on the issues facing the country.

More quotes by Barbra Streisand

Image
A human being is only interesting if he's in contact with himself.
Barbra Streisand
Image
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
Image
I don't care what you say about me. Just be sure to spell my name wrong.
Barbra Streisand
Image
Being a woman in music was fine, but when I wanted to direct, I was poking my head into a man's world.
Barbra Streisand
Image
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
Image
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.

Image
I like to stay home a lot. I like to do other things, too, like decorate.
Barbra Streisand
Image
I was raised on the streets, in hot, steamy Brooklyn, with stifled air.
Barbra Streisand
Image
As a young woman, I wanted nothing more than to see my name in lights.
Barbra Streisand
Image
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.

Image
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
Image
I'm a terrible lip-syncer anyway because I have to be in the moment, and I can't lip-sync to something I recorded three months before.
Barbra Streisand
Image
I am a nice person. I care about my driver having lunch, you know.
Barbra Streisand
Image
I remember when I was 5 living on Pulaski Street in Brooklyn, the hallway of our building had a brass banister and a great sound, a great echo system. I used to sing in the hallway.

Life's too short. Start with Dessert!

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.

Image
I only began to sing because I couldn't get a job as an actress.

Image
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
Image
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.

I need instant gratification.
