The liberals were liberatorsthey fought slavery, fought for women to have the right to vote, fought against Hitler, Stalin, fought to end segregation, fought to end apartheid. Liberals put an end to child labor and they gave us the five day work week! What's to be ashamed of?

Barbra Streisand
I’d rather not talk about money. It’s kind of gross.
Barbra Streisand
I think of myself as a girl from Brooklyn.
Barbra Streisand
Everybody's frightened a bit. But how many of us just go through the fear and do it anyway?
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
They're called 'angels' because they're in heaven until the reviews come out.
Barbra Streisand
It takes me about 10 years to appreciate what it is I've done.
Barbra Streisand
The audience is the barometer of the truth.
