More quotes by Angelina Jolie
I want to take time to understand life. I want to travel. I want to be a better person, a better Mom. I want to do something good with my life.
Angelina Jolie
Im extremely honest, and I pride myself on it. I dont try to be shocking. Im playful, and I know when something Im saying is maybe shocking, but its just the truth, I never wanted to be scary to people or upsetting to people. I simply want to live the way I need to live.
Angelina Jolie
Once you have six children, you're committed.
Angelina Jolie
The mind wants to forget because it weighs so much on the heart and soul. I am tired of crying and feeling so helpless. I want to breathe again -just for a little while.
Angelina Jolie
I think I should learn French and be a better cook - basic, really good life stuff.
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
I think what children can handle and what they're interested in is much deeper than people assume. It's why sometimes we make things too simple for them.
Angelina Jolie
I'm happy being myself, which I've never been before. I always hid in other people, or tried to find myself through the characters, or live out their lives, but I didn't have those things in mine.
Angelina Jolie
There's something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now.
Angelina Jolie
I collect books, and I love libraries. I love bookstores. And to me meeting a writer is important. And when I saw a book with my name on it I almost passed out.
Angelina Jolie
To be put simply refugees are us. And their mothers are like us, they love their children the same, they laugh, they dream, and they are survivors, they are amazing.
Angelina Jolie
People will say what they want to say, and it's okay. And my life will go on, and I need to focus on my life. So, do I need to defend that I'm a decent woman? I sure hope I don't. I know I am.
Angelina Jolie
The money it would cost to buy another car could be [used to] build two schools. So it's an easy choice that makes me very happy.
Angelina Jolie
For anybody that works in any kind of demining or any kind of humanitarian aid work, there is danger and it's always a high-risk area [in Cambodia].
Angelina Jolie
Progress is slow, it is uneven, it is fragile and in some parts of the world it is being erased.
Angelina Jolie
Save one-third, live on one-third, and give away one-third
Angelina Jolie
I have so many children. Half of mine are the ones that just must climb the tree, must climb the mountain, must get dirty, must jump off, flip into the pool sideways because it's just who they are. So you try to give them as much guidance and prepare them but they are who they are.
Angelina Jolie
When I was growing up I wanted to adopt, because I was aware there were kids that didn't have parents. It's not a humanitarian thing, because I don't see it as a sacrifice. It's a gift. We're all lucky to have each other.
Angelina Jolie
The beautiful thing about such moments in life is that there is so much clarity. You know what you live for and what matters.
Angelina Jolie
I have so much in my life. I want to be of value to the world.
Angelina Jolie
