More quotes by Angelina Jolie
What's going to be funny is when they think Mom and Dad are a little bit cool, because right now, we're not cool Mom and Dad.
Angelina Jolie
Children should be allowed to express themselves in whatever way they wish without anybody judging them because it is an important part of their growth... Society always has something to learn when it comes to the way we judge each other, label each other. We have far to go.
Angelina Jolie
I've been fortunate in that I've been able to have that balance as an actress to be able to do the wild, fun action movies and also be allowed to do the dramas. Hopefully, if I'm able to keep that balance, I'd love to always try to do both.
Angelina Jolie
I think I connect to people who could be written off as wild or dark, or who are just full of fire and looking for a place to put that fire. It's an important lesson to learn, and it's something I did learn: you live on behalf of others and you're happier and you have purpose. And you have a great excuse to have all that fire.

... the one that has the worst effect for me was pot. I felt silly and giggly - I hate feeling like that.
Angelina Jolie
I met this amazing person, and we realized we had very similar views on how we wanted to live our lives. It’s happened quickly, with so many children. Yesterday, picking up the kids from school, Brad turned around in the car, and there were three of them. He couldn’t stop laughing. We love them and are having a great time.
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
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
I've often felt unattractive or different looking. As I've grown up, I've felt more comfortable in my own skin. It may sound cliche, but when you feel beautiful and strong on the inside, it shows on the outside.
Angelina Jolie
I take my kids to school and if I go to work they visit me on set, I come home. I have dinner with my family. I have breakfast with my family. I have a very solid, a very warm home. I'm fortunate.
Angelina Jolie
Barefoot or first thing in the morning, I feel beautiful. I didn't always feel that way, but I feel that way now. When somebody loves you, and when you make somebody else happy, when your presence seems to make them happy, you suddenly feel like the most beautiful person in the world.
Angelina Jolie
Everyone got kind of crazy with me mentioning I was in love with a woman.
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
I'm very careful with my emotions, and I don't let them run free. If I'm upset, it's usually for a very good, very deep reason.
Angelina Jolie
To be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive. I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn't be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife.
Angelina Jolie
I'm trying to find things that are extremely challenging or mean something to me deeply.
Angelina Jolie
I never save things and I never take pictures. I wanna live in the moment. I don't wanna be focusing on the past.
Angelina Jolie
I've had a wonderful career and I'm very happy to have had all of the opportunities that I've had to tell stories and work for as long as I have. I'm sure there'll be a few more films but I'm happy that I'm able to be selective.
Angelina Jolie
Like every mother, my wish - every birthday - is for my children to stay healthy (and) for my family to remain healthy.
Angelina Jolie
To do something good, it has to scare you.
