More quotes by 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 know why it is that we need to denigrate, to knock down. It's so sick.
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
And remember, this was a president (George W. Bush) who was selected by the Supreme Court rather than the people.
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
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
Issues of foreign policy have a place in every election for President.
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
As a young woman, I wanted nothing more than to see my name in lights.
Barbra Streisand
We cannot let the right wing roll back more than thirty years of social progress.
Barbra Streisand
It is every woman's dream to be some man's dream woman.
Barbra Streisand
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.
Barbra Streisand
On a very basic level, many people think celebrities have too much already, so we shouldn't be entitled to our political opinions.
Barbra Streisand
Part of our society kills what it loves, despises what it's created. It really hates success.
Barbra Streisand
I like simple things. Elastic waists, so I can eat.
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
When I was working a lot, I felt guilty as a parent. I couldn't pick up my son every day from school, bake him cookies and that kind of thing.
Barbra Streisand
I'm not that ambitious any more. I just like my privacy. I wish I really wasn't talked about at all.
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
Life's too short. Start with Dessert!
