Quotes by Drew Barrymore

I still, at hotel rooms, I do this one sort of not-so-cool thing: continually shoving my room service tray in front of someone else’s door. Because I don’t want the remnants. I don’t want to be caught, like, being like the pig that I was at two in the morning.

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.

Sometimes I bust out and do things so permanent. Like tattoos and marriage.

Love is the hardest habit to break, and the most difficult to satisfy.

I never regret anything. Because every little detail of your life is what made you into who you are in the end.

It’s only through listening that you learn, and I never want to stop learning.

I’m just learning who I am and how relationships work and how to make them function. No different from anyone else.

If you’re going to go through hell… I suggest you come back learning something.

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.’

There’s a tremendous difference between alone and lonely. You could be lonely in a group of people. I like being alone. I like eating by myself. I go home at night and just watch a movie or hang out with my dog. I have to exert myself and really say, oh God, I’ve got to see my friends ’cause I’m too content being by myself.
