We talk about orphanages, we talk about their countries and differences, and it’s a source of excitement and pride. I’ve heard Maddox explain to Zahara when they are talking about pregnancy, ‘No, Zee, remember, you were in that nice African woman’s belly. I was in that nice Cambodian woman’.

Everyone got kind of crazy with me mentioning I was in love with a woman.
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
Image
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.

Violence against women is still treated as a lesser crime. Armed groups turn it into a weapon of choice because of near total impunity.

I know my children will never have to say, 'Mom died of ovarian cancer.'

Sometimes acting and politics make a very bad combination. I think that sometimes people take me less seriously in my work for the UN because I am an actor.
Angelina Jolie
Image
This has been my life for many years one role feeds the other. It is a joy to be an artist, but it doesn't mean very much unless that work is somehow useful in some way and contributes to others.
