Barbra Streisand Quotes

I just don’t like the idea of her singing my songs. Who the hell does she thinks she is? The world doesn’t need another Streisand! (on Diana Ross) Picture Quote #1

Just like my father, I’ve always loved education. In school I was a member of the honor society Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

I’m interested in the truth, and unauthorized biographies are not. Yes, I would like to correct those errors someday Picture Quote #1

I have one son. Of everything I’ve done in my life, nothing matches the feeling of having life growing inside you Picture Quote #1

I’ve been called many names like perfectionist, difficult and obsessive. I think it takes obsession, takes searching for the details for any artist to be good Picture Quote #1

You know, I can’t remember my good reviews. I remember negative ones. They stay in my mind Picture Quote #1

I guess if you have an original take on life, or something about you is original, you don’t have to study people who came before you. You don’t have to mimic anybody. You just have a gut feeling inside, an instinct that tells you what’s right for you, and you can’t do it in any other way Picture Quote #1

I’ve considered having my nose fixed. But I didn’t trust anyone enough. If I could do it myself with a mirror Picture Quote #1

A man who graduated high in his class at Yale Law School and made partnership in a top law firm would be celebrated. A man who invested wisely would be admired, but a woman who accomplishes this is treated with suspicion Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

What is exciting is not for one person to be stronger than the other. But for two people to have met their match and yet they are equally as stubborn, as obstinate, as passionate, as crazy as the other Picture Quote #1

A human being is only interesting if he’s in contact with himself Picture Quote #1

Everyone has a right to love and be loved, and nobody on this earth has the right to tell anyone that their love for another human being is morally wrong Picture Quote #1

Art is the signature of a generation; artists have a way of defining the times Picture Quote #1

No one should have to conform to some mythical concept of the ideal family Picture Quote #1

Art finds a way to be constructive. It becomes heat in cold places; it becomes light in dark places Picture Quote #1

It’s very often the artist who gives a voice to the voiceless by speaking up when no one else will Picture Quote #1

Art does not exist only to entertain, but also to challenge one to think, to provoke, even to disturb, in a constant search for truth Picture Quote #1

Men are allowed to have passion and commitment for their work... a woman is allowed that feeling for a man, but not her work Picture Quote #1

How I wish we lived in a time when laws were not necessary to safeguard us from discrimination Picture Quote #1

There’s a part of you that always remains a child, no matter how mature you get, how sophisticated or weary Picture Quote #1

Why is it people who want the truth never believe it when they hear it? Picture Quote #1

It’s not a date. We’re just agreeing to eat at the same table Picture Quote #1

Being a woman in music was fine, but when I wanted to direct, I was poking my head into a man’s world Picture Quote #1

I love things that are indescribable, like the taste of an avocado or the smell of a gardenia Picture Quote #1

I only began to sing because I couldn’t get a job as an actress Picture Quote #1

I was kind of a wild child. I wasn’t taught the niceties of life Picture Quote #1

I am simple, complex, generous, selfish, unattractive, beautiful, lazy, and driven Picture Quote #1

To have ego means to believe in your own strength. And to also be open to other people's views. It is to be open, not closed. So, yes, my ego is big, but it's also very small in some areas. My ego is responsible for my doing what I do bad or good Picture Quote #1
