I didn't really want to live, so anything that was an investment in time made me angry... but also I just felt sad. When the hopelessness is hurting you, it's the fixtures and fittings that finish you off.

More quotes by Angelina Jolie
I'd go from film to film and almost detach from one world and jump in another. I was living as these people and not having a self. I didn't know who I was. And things just get really dark.
Angelina Jolie
I have a certain energy on screen, and it's either needed or it's definitely not needed. I know that I can stick out like a sore thumb, and there are some women I'm not ready to play.
Angelina Jolie
There doesn't need to be a God for me. There's something in people that's spiritual, that's godlike. I don't feel like doing things just because people say things, but I also don't really know if it's better to just not believe in anything, either.
Angelina Jolie
Becoming a parent has just completely changed me, and made life so beautiful and given me such a center and a focus and such joy.
Angelina Jolie
Family is what grounds you.
Angelina Jolie
I have so much in my life. I want to be of value to the world.
Angelina Jolie
Our family may seem extraordinary in some magazines or something, but at home it's not. We're really just a very loving family. We're very close, and we don't read magazines. We just kind of go to work and come home. We try to keep a sense of reality into their lives. What's truly real, not Hollywood real.
Angelina Jolie
Each person can make their difference.
Angelina Jolie
I like to hide behind the characters I play.
Angelina Jolie
If you have problems, it's something to apologize for, to be embarrassed about, not to revel in. It's the perfectionist in me...That's why people call me the bossy little thing-I'm the bossiest person around.
Angelina Jolie
I'm a very private person. I don't go out much. I'm home with kids. I go to work. I don't really like being the focus of attention, which is why I like being behind the camera more.
Angelina Jolie
I'm much happier and more fulfilled than I thought I would ever be, especially when I was going through a lot of grief when I was younger. I hope it lasts.
Angelina Jolie
The nice thing about being a director is that I can say, I can only get into the room after the kids are at school, and I have to be back for dinner. And they're coming for lunch.
Angelina Jolie
What nourishes me also destroys me.
Angelina Jolie
If I make a fool of myself, who cares? I'm not frightened by anyone's perception of me.
Angelina Jolie
I don't do things that are comedic. This is such a crazy idea.
Angelina Jolie
Artists raise their kids differently. We communicate to the point where we probably annoy our children. We have art around the house, we have books, we go to plays, we talk. Our focus is art and painting and dress-up and singing. It's what we love. So I think you can see how artists in some way raise other artists.
Angelina Jolie
No matter what you have gone through in your youth, it is about who you choose to be in life. You can define your own destiny. You can be stronger than a very difficult past and overcome it.
Angelina Jolie
My role as goodwill ambassador has made my work as a film star relatively dull. I can`t find anything that interests me enough to go back to work. I`m simply not excited about anything. I`m not excited about going to a film set.
Angelina Jolie
We need the political will, and that often comes from the will of the people. So if celebrities or personalities can help to educate the people - not influence them, not tell them (what to do) - just tell them the truth about what's happening and let them form their own opinion, that will strengthen them and they will push their politicians.
