More quotes by Drew Barrymore
Oh, I would love to be a motivational speaker. I have pulled myself out of a million potholes, and I can see the potholes ahead of me. That doesn't mean that I could always do that so perfectly for my own life. I totally fall in potholes.
Drew Barrymore
I'm glad I lived such a full life before I settled down into a family because I got to enjoy it and get it out of my system.
Drew Barrymore
It's only through listening that you learn, and I never want to stop learning.
Drew Barrymore
I'm so in control of my life, you shouldn't dislike anything I do-because I'm not only in the best place I've ever been, but it keeps getting better and better.
Drew Barrymore
I'm very sensitive to the English language. I studied the dictionary obsessively when I was a kid and collect old dictionaries. Words, I think, are very powerful and they convey an intention.
Drew Barrymore
Producing is so exciting because you can enable things to happen, whether it's like discovering a filmmaker who you're taking a chance on, protecting a battle and driving home at the end of the day just going, I'm so glad I stayed late at work and fought hard for that. Had my passion. Won that battle.
Drew Barrymore
I still feel like I have a lot to prove. My biggest burning question is 'How much more are you capable of?'
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
I'd rather be a few pounds heavier and enjoy life than be worried all the time.
Drew Barrymore
I didn't grow up in a traditional family, and I never had a family dinner around the table, so whenever I actually had a dinner 'plan,' it meant a lot to me it made me feel excited and safe.
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
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
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
The older you get, the few slumber parties there are, and I hate that. I liked slumber parties. What happened to them?
Drew Barrymore
Love is the hardest habit to break, and the most difficult to satisfy.
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
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 wanna smoke pot, but I can't, cause I'm too paranoid.
Drew Barrymore
Everything I do, I do infinite percent.
Drew Barrymore
Feeding a child at school is such a simple thing - but it works miracles.
