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. Drew Barrymore on home
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.' Drew Barrymore on home
If you're going to go through hell... I suggest you come back learning something. Drew Barrymore on learning
It's only through listening that you learn, and I never want to stop learning. Drew Barrymore on learning
I'm just learning who I am and how relationships work and how to make them function. No different from anyone else. Drew Barrymore on learning
Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths. Drew Barrymore on life
I never regret anything. Because every little detail of your life is what made you into who you are in the end. Drew Barrymore on life
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. Drew Barrymore on life
Love is the hardest habit to break, and the most difficult to satisfy. Drew Barrymore on love
I love romance. I'm a sucker for it. I love it so much. It's pathetic. Drew Barrymore on love
Sometimes I bust out and do things so permanent. Like tattoos and marriage. Drew Barrymore on marriage
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 on money
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. Drew Barrymore on morning
I remember being on film sets when I was younger, and only men got to do the cool action movies. So I thought, 'Maybe I'll get to produce one day and get to do cool stuff too,' which is what happened when we did 'Charlie's Angels.' Starting my production company was a big turning point for me.

Becoming emancipated at 14, my life wasn't normal. I didn't have to go to school, so I didn't. I was rebellious by nature. I spent my 20s focusing on my company, Flower Films, and producing movies. Now that I'm almost 30, I would like to try other things in lie. I'm crazy about photography, and I want to take an art history class. Drew Barrymore on movies

I'm not after fame and success and fortune and power. It's mostly that I want to have a good job and have good friends that's the good stuff in life. Drew Barrymore on power
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 on smile
