More quotes by Drew Barrymore
I've always wanted to work with Hugh [Grant] because I loved his movies.
Drew Barrymore
I think video village is bullshit. It's like it's a breeding ground for people to nitpick and feel important. It's just such a weird dynamic.
Drew Barrymore
I love Tate Modern there's such great style and shopping here. I love the galleries and the pubs out on the street, just having your pint as the sun is setting.
Drew Barrymore
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.
Drew Barrymore
I love inventive food, but I want the classic dishes to taste like how I remember them. I get a little bummed out when there is too much fancy stuff going on and it doesn't resemble the original dish at all.
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
I would love to be a travel writer. I'd be so stoked.
Drew Barrymore
There are a lot of us little gypsies out there that need to go and find another place you know. A safer, healthier or just a different venue in order to develop and find ourselves. I am so lucky to live the life that I do.
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 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
A few years ago, I bought an old red bicycle with the words Free Spirit written across its side - which is exactly what I felt like when I rode it down the street in a tie-dyed dress.
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
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 life is so different than I thought it would be.
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.
Drew Barrymore
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.
Drew Barrymore
I am not a rodeo clown, like, Everything is awesome! I really worked hard on myself and things and struggled to get to a good place, to a better place.
Drew Barrymore
I love the very exposed, humorous, imperfect, never-trying to-pretend-to-be-perfect journey that I have been on in my life.
Drew Barrymore
I think Shazam is one of the coolest inventions on the planet, and whether I was in a thrift store or in my car, every other week I was Shazaming another Best Coast song.
Drew Barrymore
Celebrity! It's become the most disgusting word on the planet. It makes me sick to my stomach.
