I am simple, complex, generous, selfish, unattractive, beautiful, lazy, and driven.
Barbara Streisand
Success to me is having ten honeydew melons and eating only the top half of each one.

I am also very proud to be a liberal. Why is that so terrible these days? The liberals were liberators -- they 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?

Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and then complain that he's not the man she married?
Barbara 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?
Barbara Streisand
It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.
