More quotes by Angelina Jolie
Life comes with many challenges. The ones that should not scare us are the ones we can take on and take control of.
Angelina Jolie
To be in any way a positive contribution, that's all anybody wants to be. It's all I've ever wanted to be. I wanted to be an artist, be a mother. You want to feel that in your life you've been of use, in whatever way that comes out.
Angelina Jolie
I want to raise my kids, I want to get them through their teenage years. ... I do love my work with the UN and with PSVI so if I can do more of that and be more effective I will do whatever I can.
Angelina Jolie
If you don't get out of the box you've been raised in, you won't understand how much bigger the world is. You might never find out that you are useful for all the right reasons - and not all those stupid things that people tell you you're useful for.
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.

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 think a woman is sexy when she's in nice clothes, flattering clothes. I don't think that being half-dressed in little half-tops... I don't find that sexy.
Angelina Jolie
I need someone physically stronger than me.... I am always on top. It's really unfortunate. I am begging for the man that can put me on the bottom. Or the woman. Anybody that can take me down.
Angelina Jolie
Where ever I am I always find myself looking out the window wishing I was somewhere else.
Angelina Jolie
I am deeply grateful to the citizens of Sarajevo and the Sarajevo Canton assembly for bestowing upon me this incredible honor of citizenship. I am so proud to now be a part of such an extraordinary part of the world and fellow citizen to the people I deeply love and admire.
Angelina Jolie
I think that if more people saw more things, they wouldn't be able to really help themselves.
Angelina Jolie
I was absolutely never going to get pregnant. I never felt that it was the right thing to do. Now I wouldn't trade that experience for the world. It taught me a lot about life, just the process of it, and now we have three other beautiful children that wouldn't otherwise be here.
Angelina Jolie
I never felt settled or calm. You can't really commit to life when you feel that.
Angelina Jolie
I have so much in my life. I want to be of value to the world.
Angelina Jolie
It's great to jump into things you're not sure of and you haven't done and that are a little scary. That's what we have to do, as artists.
Angelina Jolie
The sun doesn't lose its beauty when covered by the clouds. The same way your beauty doesn't fade when being covered by Hijab
Angelina Jolie
I grew up as this very carefree, happy kid then things turned darker for me. Maybe it was because I saw that the world wasn't as happy a place as I had hoped it would be for me.
Angelina Jolie
You'd think, 'What if I make a mistake today, I'll regret it'. I don’t believe in regret, I feel everything leads us to where we are and we have to just jump forward, mean well, commit and just see what happens.
Angelina Jolie
I grew up with my career being thrust upon me. It took me a long time to believe that I could do more than that one aspect of our business.
Angelina Jolie
First and foremost comes my family and my life with Brad. We have so much joy in raising our children and teaching them about the world that nothing really compares to that.
