More quotes by Angelina Jolie
I guess that I've always wanted to be a Bond villain.
Angelina Jolie
Just start off with the same goals in mind. If you have the same values, same goals then you'll be on track for the same future.
Angelina Jolie
I see myself as mom first. I'm so lucky to have that role in life. The world can like me, hate me or fall apart around me and at least I wake up with my kids and I'm happy.
Angelina Jolie
The truth is I love being alive. And I love feeling free. So if I can't have those things then I feel like a caged animal and I'd rather not be in a cage. I'd rather be dead. And it's real simple. And I think it's not that uncommon.
Angelina Jolie
I've realized that being happy is a choice. You never want to rub anybody the wrong way or not be fun to be around, but you have to be happy. When I get logical and I don't trust my instincts - Thats when I get in trouble.
Angelina Jolie
He's amazing. He's a really dedicated father. I feel very blessed that every day I wake up and I live with my favourite people in the world, as well as my best friend.
Angelina Jolie
And they're [Coen brothers] so smart, they're so witty, they have such an extraordinary way of communicating with an audience in a such a clean way - with just a few lines or just a gesture from a character, they say so much.
Angelina Jolie
And I didn't know what that meant for a long time. It was only when I began to travel and look and live beyond my home that I understand my responsibility to others.
Angelina Jolie
I'm drawn to kids that are already born. I think some people are meant to do certain things, and I believe I'm meant to find my children in the world somewhere and not necessarily have them genetically.
Angelina Jolie
If anybody comes into my home and tries to hurt my kids, I've no problem shooting them.
Angelina Jolie
I have men in my life. I have a brother. So Maddox will have male teachers. I was raised without a father.
Angelina Jolie
Happy endings are just stories that haven't finished yet.
Angelina Jolie
For whatever reason, I don't know why, but Cambodians learned something in their suffering and their struggle that we have lost touch with.
Angelina Jolie
I think all women go through periods where we hate this about ourselves, we don't like that. It's great to get to a place where you dismiss anything you're worried about. I find flaws attractive. I find scars attractive.
Angelina Jolie
It is not where you start out in life that counts the most, it is how you choose to face it.
Angelina Jolie
I had a lovely experience once in Africa working with the U.N. when a president of a country met me about refugee issues and said ‘What do you do?’ I said ‘I‘m an actor.’ He replied ‘I heard that was a very difficult job and might not be the smartest job to do.’ It was lovely.
Angelina Jolie
I love directing, It means so much to me to direct stories about subject matter that I care deeply about. I can act in many things, and you can try to experience different characters, but to direct is years of your life and you have to really love it and believe in it.
Angelina Jolie
Because I am a bad girl, people always automatically think that I am a bad girl. Or that I carry a dark secret with me or that I'm obsessed with death. The truth is that I am probably the least morbid person one can meet. If I think more about death than some other people, it is probably because I love life more than they do.
Angelina Jolie
I'm not a single mom with two jobs, trying to get by, every day. I have much more support than most women, around this world, and I have the financial means to have a home and help with care and food.
Angelina Jolie
I try not to think about my public life. I focus on my private life, and that's just the best way to live.
