Drew Barrymore Perfect Quotations

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.

I'm such a profound believer that timing is everything; I would tattoo that on my arm.

It's never too late. Don't focus on what was taken away. Find something to replace it, and acknowledge the blessing you have.

I love the very exposed, humorous, imperfect, never-trying to-pretend-to-be-perfect journey that I have been on in my life.

I decided very early on that it took too much of my energy to pretend to be someone else. People will make up their minds about me whatever I do or say, but at least I know I am being true to myself.

The low points I had all helped make up my character, so I probably wouldn't want to do away with them because I like being flawed and I like having them help me grow and change and become better and stronger.

A thank-you can be just as meaningful as a soulful ten-page message.

Nobdoy is solid and perfect all of the time.

When things are perfect, that's when you need to worry most.

When you've been locked up in a mental institution, people are going to ask questions. It was OK, because I didn't have to act perfect all the time.

You can't live your life blaming your failures on your parents and what they did or didn't do for you. You're dealt the cards that you're dealt. I realised it was a waste of time to be angry at my parents and feel sorry for myself.

A fish may love a bird, but where would they live?

When I lay my head on the pillow at night I can say I was a decent person today. That's when I feel beautiful.

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

I cannot live a life where I'm deprived. I'd much rather be five, 10 pounds heavier. With my luck, I'll get myself to that perfect goal weight, and I'll get hit by a bus. Then I'll be like... looking at myself from some afterlife going, 'You idiot. You could have had that agnolotti, dummy.'
