More quotes by Drew Barrymore
When you become very ill - raise your head. You will definitely see the sunlight.
Drew Barrymore
It's never too late. Don't focus on what was taken away. Find something to replace it, and acknowledge the blessing you have.
Drew Barrymore
As a kid I got to like hang out with Stephen King. That was like the highlight of my life. Cause I think he's the raddest human being ever.
Drew Barrymore
Life's too short. We have to love each other.
Drew Barrymore
If you’re 35 and single and it’s a choice, it feels fine. So I didn’t settle with the wrong person yet. Big deal!
Drew Barrymore
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.
Drew Barrymore
Women shouldn't be burdened by what existed in their past, we should all learn how to turn pain into strength.
Drew Barrymore
My limbs work, so I'm not going to complain about the way my body is shaped.
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
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
I've been a vegetarian for years and years. I'm not judgemental about others who aren't, I just feel I cannot eat or wear living creatures.
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
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
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
You can't treat a romantic relationship the same way you do a business one, by being bossy. It takes tender, compromising, loving tactics. And that's such a different approach.
Drew Barrymore
My life choices are not supposed to be the gateway to somebody else's. That's my journey.
Drew Barrymore
Both of my marriages have taught me the same lesson twice over really harsh: listen to your instincts. Don't be a people pleaser.
Drew Barrymore
When you're young, you're always wondering when you're actually going to feel like a grownup. And I think you probably fear it, in a sense, too. There's a danger to feeling like an adult... like this whimsical kid in you is going to die or something. And then all of a sudden, one day you kind of feel like an adult and it's really nice.
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
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.
