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.

More quotes by Drew Barrymore
I learned early on that family, as far as my mother and father, were not an option.
Drew Barrymore
I've never dated anybody older, actually. There are so many things I'm curious about, and I'd love to be able to say, Teach me. I want to learn from the people around me.
Drew Barrymore
I understand there are inevitable things that we have to go through: heartbreak, family problems. I don't feel like some Quixotic idiot who says, 'We don't have to feel pain.' No! Let's feel it, let's make it work for ourselves. But I want us all to be able to get past it.
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 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
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
In general, people are true to their signs.
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
Trust that things will be okay - especially if you put in the time and effort to make them be okay.
Drew Barrymore
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
I used to have a blankie, and when my mom had to wash it, I would sit outside the dryer and watch it go round and round, and cry.
Drew Barrymore
I was raised in that generation where it was all 'Women can have it all!' and I don't think you can. I think something falls off the table. The good thing is that the things that stay on the table become so much more important.
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
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 personally battled with my own body image for years. I used to tell myself, You can't wear anything sleeveless or strapless. And all of a sudden I was like, What if I just didn't send such negative messages to my brain and said, wear it and enjoy it? And now I'm more comfortable in clothes than ever.
Drew Barrymore
I always thought I desperately wanted a husband and a big family, because I didn't have it growing up.
Drew Barrymore
I have certainly had my share of long-distance love affairs.
Drew Barrymore
I love writing, directing and photography if I could figure out a way to put the three things together, that's what I would love to do.
Drew Barrymore
I try each day, each month, each year to become a better and better person and to be good to the people I love and let them know how much I appreciate them.
