I think my whole life, work has been a very important and positive thing for me. It never was something that made me feel unhappy or disengaged from life. It always makes me feel like I'm plugged in, in a really healthy way.

More quotes by 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.

Speaking of important things, there are so many battles right now that people are fighting for that it's overwhelming, but I am always in favor of people who crusade for the sake of people's hearts and their well-being. That is what is important.

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.

It's been such a struggle to learn all that I have I wouldn't want to give any of that knowledge up. That's why I've always loved acting as a kid, I didn't necessarily like my real life, so I could escape into these other characters and experience a life completely different from my own.

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.

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 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.

I want to be with the man who wants to open a movie studio with me and make films for new, fresh filmmakers who aren't getting a chance somewhere else. I haven't yet had that type of partnership in a romantic relationship.
Drew Barrymore
The stories that I want to tell, especially as a director, don't necessarily have a perfect ending because, the older you get, the more you appreciate a good day versus a happy ending. You understand that life continues on the next day the reality of things is what happens tomorrow.

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.
