More quotes by Drew Barrymore
I don't like camera trickery and editing and doubles and all of that.
Drew Barrymore
I pray to be like the ocean, with soft currents, maybe waves at times. More and more, I want the consistency rather than the highs and the lows.
Drew Barrymore
My whole life, I've wanted to feel comfortable in my skin. It's the most liberating thing in the world.
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 looooove cookbooks. I cook a lot when I'm pregnant.
Drew Barrymore
Being a Barrymore didn't help me, other than giving me a great sense of pride and a strange spiritual sense that I felt OK about having the passion to act. It made sense because my whole family had done it and it helped rationalise it for me.
Drew Barrymore
I know what the intimidation level of high school is. You're on a hamster wheel, running, running, running, trying so hard to fit in. It's all about how you deal with what you're given, feeling OK with being the odd man out before you're finally successful.
Drew Barrymore
I don't cook, I can't cook, and it is really abominable to see me in the kitchen. I order in takeaway food or get my friends to cook because a lot of them are very good.
Drew Barrymore
I've always wanted to work with Hugh [Grant] because I loved his movies.
Drew Barrymore
I really have created a family. I work with the people I love, I travel with them, I make films with them, and I'm in an office with them. So in a weird way - I know I haven't birthed a child - I feel that I'm a part of creating a family. It's a tribe. I love that word.
Drew Barrymore
Kissing in the movies is a real art - figuring out where to put your heads so it looks good on camera. I have had other co-stars who couldn't work that out, which made it a lot harder for me.
Drew Barrymore
I am who I am because of the people who influenced me growing up, and many of them were gay. No one has any right to tell anyone what makes a family
Drew Barrymore
When [my friend] had her kid, she was like, 9:30?! I'm not living in Barcelona. I need dinner at 6. I never got that until now. Four years ago, when I met her, I thought that was extreme. I was like, I love Barcelona! Now, I'm so mad when someone suggests an 8 pm reservation because that means we won't eat until 8:30 or 9 pm. Forget it!
Drew Barrymore
I've spent a lot of time in my life dedicating myself to love or the pursuit of love or the understanding of love... I’ve stopped believing in happy endings. I’ve started believing in good days.
Drew Barrymore
The more you do speak from the heart, rather than thumping the agenda, people will listen or relate or open themselves up more.
Drew Barrymore
Everyone is like a butterfly, they start out ugly and awkward and then morph into beautiful graceful butterflies that everyone loves.
Drew Barrymore
The older you get, the few slumber parties there are, and I hate that. I liked slumber parties. What happened to them?
Drew Barrymore
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.
Drew Barrymore
I grew up in a makeup chair, to see! the women around me getting ready was so aspirational, It is about mothers and daughters, a girl watching her mom at a vanity table.
Drew Barrymore
I've got Flossie dog, and she is great. She and I are still in love, 14 years. That's a relationship that works.
Drew Barrymore
