In 1983 Barbra made the  film masterpiece "Yentl" A winner of several best movie awards , in which Barbra co wrote, directed and starred.

This is a quote from the film in a bookshop ,you will need to see the film, to get the context-Yentle did't have any books at the time the tradition then was girls worked in the house, Yentle sees some students in the shop :

​

                     Yentle :I envy them.

        Yentle's Father :the bookseller ?

                    Yentle : no not the bookseller the students,

                                talking about life,the mysteries of the universe

                                and i'm learning how to tell a herring from a carp.
