The nice thing about being a director is that I can say, I can only get into the room after the kids are at school, and I have to be back for dinner. And they're coming for lunch.

More quotes by Angelina Jolie
Working with [Robert] De Niro taught me a lot about being an actor's director.
Angelina Jolie
I loved being on the other side of the camera and interacting with the crew. When you are an actor, you have to stay inside this world, but when you are with the crew, on the outside, you are in the dirt, working through all the issues. It's just a different way of working, and I think I preferred it.
Angelina Jolie
I approached UNHCR because I believe in what the United Nations. I believe refugees are the most vulnerable people in the world. They are affected by everything, including landmines. They are vulnerable to everything.
Angelina Jolie
I do have tatoos, and I do wear leather, but there are other sides of me, that my film express.
Angelina Jolie
You can seek advice, learn about the options and make choices that are right for you. Knowledge is power.
Angelina Jolie
I find flaws attractive. I find scars attractive.
Angelina Jolie
I like the feeling of being dominated. It actually makes me feel safe as opposed to challenged.
Angelina Jolie
With doing the movies I've done I don't think I would be half the person I am today.
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
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
We cannot look at Syria, and the evil that has arisen from the ashes of indecision, and think this is not the lowest point in the world's inability to protect and defend the innocent.
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
Becoming a parent has just completely changed me, and made life so beautiful and given me such a center and a focus and such joy.
Angelina Jolie
It is wonderful to hear of the relief efforts that are finally coming to New Orleans and the rest of the region, but as well all know, it is simply not going to be enough.
Angelina Jolie
I wanted to educate myself about the world and I wanted to know what was happening to people in other countries. I feel now I have only just begun.
Angelina Jolie
I became an actress because my mom wanted me to become an actress. It took me until my mid-30s to realize I actually didn’t. I actually wanted to write and direct and be more involved in politics and humanitarian issues.
Angelina Jolie
I never thought I'd have children I never thought I'd be in love, I never thought I'd meet the right person. Having come from a broken home - you kind of accept that certain things feel like a fairy tale, and you just don't look for them.
Angelina Jolie
I like everything. Boyish girls, girlish boys, the heavy and the skinny. Which is a problem when I'm walking down the street.
Angelina Jolie
Anytime I feel lost, I pull out a map and stare. I stare until I have reminded myself that life is a giant adventure, so much to do, to see.
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.
