It wasn't my choice to be an open book, but when people found out what my life was like when I was 14 or 15, I didn't deny it. I think the more imperfect you are, the more human you are.

More quotes by Drew Barrymore
I aspire to be that, to be a voice of reason one day.
Drew Barrymore
I would love to be a travel writer. I'd be so stoked.
Drew Barrymore
No matter what the genre, I want to see me and my friends. I want to see reality. I want to see what we're really like. I loved 'Bridesmaids'. I thought it was the most honest portrayal of female friendship in such a long time.
Drew Barrymore
The stories that I want to tell, especially as a director, don't necessarily have a perfect ending because, the older you get, the more you appreciate a good day versus a happy ending. You understand that life continues on the next day the reality of things is what happens tomorrow.
Drew Barrymore
Going back to Georgiana Drew and John Drew, and my great-grandfather Maurice Barrymore, and it was such a sort of circus of odd, interesting people that loved acting.
Drew Barrymore
I wanna smoke pot, but I can't, cause I'm too paranoid.
Drew Barrymore
People are like moths. First they are ugly and awkward, until they break out of their shell and become a beautiful butterfly.
Drew Barrymore
If you're going to go through hell... I suggest you come back learning something.
Drew Barrymore
I've never dated anybody older, actually. There are so many things I'm curious about, and I'd love to be able to say, Teach me. I want to learn from the people around me.
Drew Barrymore
I think video village is bullshit. It's like it's a breeding ground for people to nitpick and feel important. It's just such a weird dynamic.
Drew Barrymore
I am not someone who is ashamed of my past. I'm actually really proud. I know I made a lot of mistakes, but they in turn were my life lessons.
Drew Barrymore
I mean, I come from a hippie mentality where I just think to know someone, you need to look into their eyes. Eyes are so important. Until they start melon-balling eyes out, I won't be able to get to know someone another way.
Drew Barrymore
Life is not about focusing on the obstacles. It's about how you handle them, and whether you get enlightenment or levity from the way you do it
Drew Barrymore
It's been such a struggle to learn all that I have I wouldn't want to give any of that knowledge up. That's why I've always loved acting as a kid, I didn't necessarily like my real life, so I could escape into these other characters and experience a life completely different from my own.
Drew Barrymore
I'm such an avid magazine reader - music, art, beauty magazines - and I found that food and restaurants were pouring into everything I cared about. Whether it was the pop-up concept, or some mysterious mini-mall restaurant, I got swept up in the sexy romance of the food movement.
Drew Barrymore
I love writing, directing and photography if I could figure out a way to put the three things together, that's what I would love to do.
Drew Barrymore
Feeding a child at school is such a simple thing - but it works miracles.
Drew Barrymore
If you're going to be alive and on this planet, you have to, like, suck the marrow out of every day and get the most out of it.
Drew Barrymore
You can never, never have too many books
Drew Barrymore
At 35, I'm definitely starting to feel more like a grown-up than I ever have. There's nothing in my life that is childish or whimsical. Having fun is fantastic and I never want to lose a sense of that - and also, I think, you have to have that to put into your work or else it's going to feel stiff.
Drew Barrymore
