Top 10 Barbra Streisand Quotes & Sayings

Barbra Steisand on Acting, Singing, Love and Fame

Bryan  Mckinley
Barbra Streisand's quotes show a woman that has made sure to keep her feet on the ground. She has never been one to completely embrace fame, but it comes with the great career she has had. She might prefer a smaller spotlight on her private life, but that doesn't mean she shies away from stating her mind. She gives her thoughts on acting, singing, love and herself. I personally love her quote on her worst nightmare because that is one time you wish nobody knew you as a famous person. Here are her top 10 best quotes and sayings. What is your favorite?
