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.

More quotes by Drew Barrymore
I'm a very research-, homework-oriented person.
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
I'm such a workaholic. I'm always thinking about work.
Drew Barrymore
I think that we all have to have that rite of passage of dating the tortured artist who seems cooler than we think we are we aspire to be like them, and we're excited that somebody is turning us on to new music or a new lifestyle.
Drew Barrymore
I did love horror films from the '70s and '80s. That was my sweet spot.
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
It's my crusade to help women feel good about themselves.
Drew Barrymore
In general, people are true to their signs.
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
I never regret anything. Because every little detail of your life is what made you into who you are in the end.
Drew Barrymore
I've been producing for 13 years. I've made a string of joyful movies with positive messages about comedy, love and romance.
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
I've always wanted to work with Hugh [Grant] because I loved his movies.
Drew Barrymore
I think the world offers so many wonderful varieties of obstacles, but that shouldn't be one for kids - is the worry that 'my parents wont be there.'
Drew Barrymore
I don't want to be vain or fearful, and I don't think I'll do anything [in terms of plastic surgery], but if I want to do something, I will. From my perspective, there's no reason to be afraid of aging, because if you age, you're lucky! The alternative is death.
Drew Barrymore
Happiness takes work. It doesn't always fall off trees or come easily. You really have to be someone that doesn't fall prey to being sad. I don't want sad, I can't be sad, I don't want to be about sad I avoid sad. It inherently envelops you, so do everything that you can to escape it all the time.
Drew Barrymore
Sometimes you come to a point where there's nothing more you can do. You love and respect each other, but it's not working. So you amicably decide to part. I don't know what the future holds: a lot of people get back together after they break up.
Drew Barrymore
Some of the mini-worlds that filmmakers have created are so ingrained in my love of culture.
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 believe that everything happens for a reason, but I think it's important to seek out that reason - that's how we learn.
