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.

More quotes by Drew Barrymore
My mother and I split ways when I was very young and have never really reconciled.
Drew Barrymore
I don't want to sit around and hope good things happen. I want to make them happen.
Drew Barrymore
I think a breakup can be the beginning of a friendship. That's not me trying to make everything OK - it's me saying, No, we love each other. Let's not pretend we don't.
Drew Barrymore
I love jokes, but God, jokes can go so wrong. I have stayed up many nights thinking, F**k. I can't believe I made that silly little joke. That was a disaster.
Drew Barrymore
I looooove cookbooks. I cook a lot when I'm pregnant.
Drew Barrymore
I did love horror films from the '70s and '80s. That was my sweet spot.
Drew Barrymore
I know that I won't succeed at everything, every day. Some days have to be solely about my daughter. Some days I really try to be a good wife. Other days, I can take a few hours for myself and just do nothing but really focus on work.
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
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
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
Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths.
Drew Barrymore
Putting your name on something and having no idea how it came about if someone else did all the work - that's not me.
Drew Barrymore
The reason I started officially learning to cook was because when I first got pregnant, I had to face the sad fact that I didn't even know how to boil an egg.
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 try to be a good shiksa wife. I go to Central Synagogue in New York.
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
I want to be the rock that floats.
Drew Barrymore
A thank-you can be just as meaningful as a soulful ten-page message.
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 hate women who say they can eat whatever they want, because I don't relate to that at all. It isn't fair! I absolutely live for food.
