No matter what you have gone through in your youth, it is about who you choose to be in life. You can define your own destiny. You can be stronger than a very difficult past and overcome it.

More quotes by Angelina Jolie
The only way to have a life is to commit to it like crazy.
Angelina Jolie
We're all just big kids. That's all we are. We are artistes. We grew up wanting to be part of the fantasy of the fairy tales and the stories.
Angelina Jolie
I think it's easier to play when you do have a balanced home. I think if I did have alcoholism in my personal life, or my mother, or somebody close to me, it might have been much more uncomfortable to get in there.
Angelina Jolie
I can tell my children that they don't need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer.
Angelina Jolie
I think all kids are curious. They're drawn to the bad guy and they're drawn to things that are dark. It's not just simply a desire to be wicked. I think there are things that frighten us in life and, especially children, they want to understand and take it on or understand it so it frightens them less.
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 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'm very happy and very excited when my adrenalin is going.
Angelina Jolie
~Sometimes, when I want to take on the world, I try to remember that it's just as important to sit down and ask my son how he's feeling or talk to him about life.~
Angelina Jolie
I went through what I imagine thousands of other women have felt. I told myself to stay calm, to be strong, and that I had no reason to think I wouldn't live to see my children grow up and to meet my grandchildren.
Angelina Jolie
Make bold choices and make mistakes. It's all those things that add up to the person you become.
Angelina Jolie
My role as goodwill ambassador has made my work as a film star relatively dull. I can`t find anything that interests me enough to go back to work. I`m simply not excited about anything. I`m not excited about going to a film set.
Angelina Jolie
I've never lived my life in the opinion of others. I believe I'm a good person. I believe I'm a good mom. But that's for my kids to decide, not for the world.
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
It's just person after person in every different country that has a life that I can’t even imagine and has gone through horror that I can’t even imagine.
Angelina Jolie
If I didn't have my films as an outlet for all the different sides of me, I would probably be locked up.
Angelina Jolie
I entered this business before I had focus and purpose in my life. I was very unhappy, very unhealthy, and when I sat down for an interview, I didn't know why. I felt like I didn't have anything to share. It was a very empty time.
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
If anybody comes into my home and tries to hurt my kids, I've no problem shooting them... I bought original, real guns of the type we used in Tomb Raider for security. Brad and I are not against having a gun in the house, and we do have one. And yes, I'd be able to use it if I had to.
Angelina Jolie
Don't fit in, don't sit still, don't ever try to be less than what you are...
Angelina Jolie
