The people I grew up around who I really liked were quick on the draw. It always just wowed me. And my mum would make weird funny comments. I can see in myself her self-deprecating, hippie humour. I can't take myself too seriously.

More quotes by Drew Barrymore
When you've been locked up in a mental institution, people are going to ask questions. It was OK, because I didn't have to act perfect all the time.
Drew Barrymore
I aspire to be that, to be a voice of reason one day.
Drew Barrymore
Great dad. Yeah, he would ask me for money on birthdays and, you know, inappropriate times. And I just wrote him off like, 'You're not a father.' I just learned you cannot emotionally invest in people who are not attainable.
Drew Barrymore
Celebrity! It's become the most disgusting word on the planet. It makes me sick to my stomach.
Drew Barrymore
I guess I do have a childlike sense of fun, and although I still have my dark days, I'm generally an optimistic person. The way things have gone in my life, sure, I could have been a bitter person. But I just find bitter people really un-fun, you know? And who wants to be that person?
Drew Barrymore
I try each day, each month, each year to become a better and better person and to be good to the people I love and let them know how much I appreciate them.
Drew Barrymore
I have no internet savvy whatsoever, but I love researching things. The Internet is my library... beyond that, I'm completely intimidated by it.
Drew Barrymore
Some of the mini-worlds that filmmakers have created are so ingrained in my love of culture.
Drew Barrymore
I am not a rodeo clown, like, Everything is awesome! I really worked hard on myself and things and struggled to get to a good place, to a better place.
Drew Barrymore
I cry a lot. I'll cry because I see a person walking down the street looking lonely.
Drew Barrymore
I did love horror films from the '70s and '80s. That was my sweet spot.
Drew Barrymore
I don't mind a little Sturm und Drang. When I was doing 'Riding in Cars With Boys,' I wouldn't smile at anybody, because my character, Bev, was angry at the world. I'm the opposite. Inside my head I'd be like, God, I'll explain to you at the end of shooting that I'm not this person.
Drew Barrymore
I always get nervous before a kissing scene. I make sure I always brush my teeth and eat lots of fruit and nice foods rather than garlic. I'm terribly self conscious.
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
Speaking of important things, there are so many battles right now that people are fighting for that it's overwhelming, but I am always in favor of people who crusade for the sake of people's hearts and their well-being. That is what is important.
Drew Barrymore
I would love to be a travel writer. I'd be so stoked.
Drew Barrymore
I don't want to sit around and hope good things happen. I want to make them happen.
Drew Barrymore
I try to be a good shiksa wife. I go to Central Synagogue in New York.
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
And people say it all the time: 'You're a celebrity.' No, I'm an actor. I'm a producer. I'm a director. I'm a toad. I'm roadkill. I'm anything but a celebrity.
