More quotes by Angelina Jolie
The side of fairytales I don't like is that they always have happy endings, that there's just good and evil, and things are perfect. But life is a little more complicated, and that's what I try to teach my kids.
Angelina Jolie
I went through a period when I felt my film characters were having more fun than I was. It might partly explain why I ended up tattooed or doing certain extreme things in my life.
Angelina Jolie
Sometimes I think my husband is so amazing that I don't know why he's with me. I don't know whether I'm good enough. But if I make him happy, then I'm everything I want to be.
Angelina Jolie
It's a natural thing for a child to lose a parent. I lost my mom too young but it happened. And I'm happy she's out of pain, 'cause I love her and she's my friend.
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
It doesn't take courage to drink too much and be wild or jump around. That doesn't take any kind of boldness, just riding a motorcycle or whatever the idea of being tough is. Tough is having four kids. Tough is committing to life and being disciplined.
Angelina Jolie
I'm just glad I was able to return to some of that innocence and beauty I had as a child when I started my own family, and my children brought me back some of that spirit.
Angelina Jolie
In countries where people have to flee their homes because of persecution and violence, political solutions must be found, peace and tolerance restored, so that refugees can return home. In my experience, going home is the deepest wish of most refugees.
Angelina Jolie
I'm odd looking. Sometimes I think I look like a funny muppet.
Angelina Jolie
I have so much in my life. I want to be of value to the world.
Angelina Jolie
My kids are from different countries, but there's an understanding, you don't have to like a country just because you were born in it. You need to respect all countries. And be very open to each other's, of course.
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
The great thing about having a bunch of kids is that they just remind you that you're the person who takes them to go poop. That's who you are!
Angelina Jolie
It's probably not an accident that the films that I care about happen to be about issues that matter to me, stories that I want to tell. If you're going to spend two years of your life on something it has to matter to you, you have to be passionate about it.
Angelina Jolie
When other little girls wanted to be ballet dancers I kind of wanted to be a vampire.
Angelina Jolie
To actually feel like you've done something good with your life and you're useful to others is what I was always wanting, and was always looking for.
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
Love should be that person that inspires you to be a better person.
Angelina Jolie
I love doing lesbian love scenes. Before I did my lesbian scenes in Gia, I talked to actresses who said love scenes are easier with another woman than a man. Bound's Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly said they'd lie there and discuss the sale at Barney's between takes.
Angelina Jolie
I eat steamed sea bass and vegetables, and I have no sugar, and only drink soy milk.
