More quotes by Angelina Jolie
I always felt caged, closed in, like I was punching at things that weren't there. I always had too much energy for the room I was in.
Angelina Jolie
And they're [Coen brothers] so smart, they're so witty, they have such an extraordinary way of communicating with an audience in a such a clean way - with just a few lines or just a gesture from a character, they say so much.
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
I personally feel like, if you're watching a film about war, you should get a sense of what it's really like.
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
I do not feel any less of a woman. I feel empowered that I made a strong choice that in no way diminishes my femininity.
Angelina Jolie
Actors spend a great deal of their time making films. And that doesn't mean that they're not educated. But we haven't gone to law school and we're not experts on policy. We're just people with a platform and an opinion. But that should never be enough, in my opinion, to be political.
Angelina Jolie
What nourishes me also destroys me.
Angelina Jolie
I think if you make a good movie people walk away arguing.
Angelina Jolie
I'd go from film to film and almost detach from one world and jump in another. I was living as these people and not having a self. I didn't know who I was. And things just get really dark.
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
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
There doesn't need to be a God for me.
Angelina Jolie
I make it a point not to buy certain magazines, not because I am against tabloids or things like that, but I want to fill my mind with valid issues in 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
Breast cancer alone kills some 458,000 people each year, according to the World Health Organization, mainly in low- and middle-income countries. It has got to be a priority to ensure that more women can access gene testing and lifesaving preventive treatment, whatever their means and background, wherever they live.
Angelina Jolie
If you ask people what they've always wanted to do, most people haven't done it. That breaks my heart.
Angelina Jolie
Maleficent has suffered abuse in the past, and there's a reason why she is now as furious as she is. And I think that children who have been outcast and abused in any way will relate to her. There's a beautiful side to her she's not just a dark person. She has all these facets. And that is interesting.
Angelina Jolie
Artists raise their kids differently. We communicate to the point where we probably annoy our children. We have art around the house, we have books, we go to plays, we talk. Our focus is art and painting and dress-up and singing. It's what we love. So I think you can see how artists in some way raise other artists.
Angelina Jolie
Progress is slow, it is uneven, it is fragile and in some parts of the world it is being erased.
